Photographing Food Texture

download (3) Pasta is my go to food! I feel like no matter your culture, or cooking style, there is always a dish that you can incorporate pasta into. I like rotini because it has a great texture that is good for locking in flavors. The spirals help to trap food and flavors in. The texture is soft, but still solid, which goes good with sauce or meat. For example, I would eat rotini with bolognaise with fried julienne tortilla on top. Its a great balance of textures, solid, crunch, soft, and liquid.
