Yes, beauty and function go hand-in-hand – in fact it’s the perfect match.
As I’m patiently waiting for my parents back in Denmark to send me their favorite wild rabbit recipes, I’m searching the net to find inspiration. This Friday I’m going to cook two wild rabbits provided by a good friend from Bethel. I will share the dish at a party in honor of her husband and mother-in-law.
Why am I writing about food? Well, along with design, this is a huge passion of mine and I’ve been a foodie since my teenage years living in the countryside of Denmark. I remember coming home from school and going straight to the kitchen to make crepes for snacking.
I just stumbled upon this Alpine Rabbit Stew recipe from FX Cuisine and I have to share the site. This is an example of beautiful, step-by-step food photography. The only complaint I have is that there should be more recipes and more pictures. I wish this guy did this for a living.
Is the website well-designed? No. But, there’s soul in the photography and I feel immediately inspired to cook.
It’s not enough to make something beautiful – functionality is a key ingredient. These pictures take me through the recipe from start to finish and within a matter of seconds I can decide whether or not I want to follow the recipe.
