B&W Photo Contest - Metal - Entry 1 - Spaghetti Squash for Dinner

in #bwphotocontest5 years ago

Hi Steem friends,

For my first entry into this week's bwphotocontest, I am sharing a photo that I took tonight while making supper with my girlfriend. We decided to cook up some pasta tonight - though not using traditional pasta; we opted to try out some spaghetti squash because they were on sale this week at the grocery store. Although it was a bit more work to prepare than simply boiling a pot of water as you need to cut up the squash to get to the stringy, noodle-like innards.

For the sauce we decided to peel and cook some tomatoes, red peppers, garlic and onion on the stove top. We also added in some basil, parsley, oregano, pepper, salt, and olive oil for taste. Finally, we finished off the sauce with some freshly cooked ground beef!

I snapped this photo of the metal tongs I was using to stir up the sauce as we left it to simmer. Allowing the sauce to cook for plenty of time is really important as it enables all of the flavors of the different ingredients to mix adequately! Though it can be hard to be patient while waiting for the food to get fully cooked, I was able to capitalize during the down-time, capturing this nice shot of the tongs and the metal coils of the stove element.
