As you already know I’m a Food Stylist and I have a shoot for a TV commercial tomorrow. Part of my job is buying the food that’s featured in the commercial ad. To get the best results, I always buy the highest quality available on the market, and of course the freshest products!
7:00am: Fresh Market
I reached the Fresh Market early in the morning on an empty stomach: BIG MISTAKE! I ended up buying 3 times more than I had on my shopping list:)
The job required 3 ingredients: asparagus, basil and tomatoes. However, I also bought pumpkin, cauliflower, zucchini, pears, apples, blackberries, strawberries, etc.
When I got back home I was craving for breakfast, so I decided to treat myself to some “pain perdu” with strawberries. It’s quick to prepare, fresh and consistent.
