…..this is not turning into a food blog.
Finishing salts, spiced salts, herbed salts or seasoned salts, call them what you will. I made some. Why you may ask? I have no clue, I just did.
Citrus salt, Italian salt and Moroccan salt. I just bought rock salt and added different herbs and spice combinations. The Moroccan one has coriander (cilantro) cumin, chilli flakes, black pepper corns, and the Italian has chilli flakes, oregano, onions flakes and garlic flakes and black pepper corns. The Citrus is just the zest of two lemons dried in the microwave and added to the rock salt then ground in my little electric grinder.
They are quite delicious, just add a sprinkle to fish or steak just before serving, hence the name Finishing Salts I guess.
Anyway, enough of the cooking stuff. Here’s a couple of pieces I’ve made over the last few days.
Dark pewter metallic clay with some random lime green circles from a cane I made. Yes……I made a cane!
Black coated chain with large black links from another chain that I used instead of jump rings.
These photos aren’t very true to colour and I think I’ll re-take them again.
I took them near the dining room window in the morning but they look a little washed out.
Silver clay textured and highlighted with pale gold metallic paint on a brass chain with toggle and clasp.
I’ve put these two in my madeit store.
Now this is a bit exciting…….If you’re so inclined you can have my blog as an app on your smart phone.
On your phone go to Safari, type in this URL http://mippin.com/app/468709. Look for an icon at the bottom of the screen (a little square with an arrow) click on that and click Add to Home Screen. So now while your travelling to work on the bus or train you can while away the time by reading Deez News, or sitting in a coffee shop, or waiting at the Dentist or just any old time.
