154:365 Umami

05.04.2009

 

For April's Monthly Scavenger Hunt

 

Umami is basically the name given to the taste of proteins, which includes the most wonderful of culinary creations, cheese! I wonder how early man first discovered cheese....did his milk go off and he thought, oh well, lets shove it behind a rock for a week and we'll eat it if we're really desperate?

 

The oriental spoon is a nod to the origin of the word (Japanese) as the cheese is decidedly French.

 

Another foodie shot I know, I did go and read on the beach for a while, but it didn't grab me photographically today. I'll be venturing further afield tomorrow, hopefull with some outside shots.
