Comments on: Spicy mayo and how to photograph steam http://whatscookingmexico.com/2009/07/13/spicy-mayo-and-how-to-photograph-steam/ Food and Photography in Mexico Tue, 22 May 2012 21:03:01 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: Home with Mandy http://whatscookingmexico.com/2009/07/13/spicy-mayo-and-how-to-photograph-steam/comment-page-3/#comment-45025 Home with Mandy Fri, 29 Jul 2011 18:59:27 +0000 http://whatscookingmexico.com/?p=1824#comment-45025 I hope this doesn't gross anyone out, but I read in a photography "trick" book that professional food stylist will soak a tampon in water, and heat that up in the microwave. I would assume a cotton ball would do the same thing - and these items are small enough to tuck behind your food. I'm not sure I could then EAT my food knowing it was previously sitting on top of a hot steaming tampon...

Of course, we like any kind of mayo you have, so we'll take this whole plate with an extra sprinkle of lime. So this is where the spicy mayo comment came from!
