2. NO ADVERTISING

This community is for sharing pictures of awesome food, not a platform to advertise.

3. NO MEMES

4. PICTURES SHOULD BE OF FOOD

Preferably good, high quality pictures of good looking grub; for pictures of terrible food, see [email protected]

Stealing from Weissman's board ideas, I made a gastrique with shallot and dried chiltepin for the cream cheese. The rest is all cheap and cheerful Lidl nibbles.

Sorry if it was too subtle. That charcuterie doesn't belong here. The cheese is a sloppy pile of rectangles, the green thing (cucumber?) Is just a long arrayed veg without showing the flesh. The most galling thing is they made a pepperoni meat flower and then left the prosciutto as a crumple meat heap next to the flower. Like they tried for a moment and then said fuck it, I want up votes and praise instead of putting in the work.

This charcuterie is like a bunch of unarranged flowers in a vase and it is hardly foodporn. It's poorly presented and a weak attempt at getting recognition but OP didn't do anything except chop. There is no showmanship on display. The only taste in the picture is what the food brings. In

I see. Yes. In that case your first post was indeed very poorly worded. I got the impression that you were against this being posted here because you thought that it would not count as cooking.
