[Sca-cooks] Lavender Foods made with Blue corn meal- OOP

[Linda Peterson]

Remember all the talk about color changes with foods this week? Blue is
particularly suceptible to it. Blue corn meal dishes can range from an
Eastern sky blue to a ballerina pink, usually when least expected.
Experiment with the acid/base levels. It's not something I use much, being
considered rather needlessly trendy here in green chili land, so don't
know what the cost would be, but if Phlip or anyone needs a local
southwest product we could certainly get it to you.
