Jagung Bakar Photo

Photographer’s Note

Jagung bakar, or literally means as 'burned corn' its a local snack. Like popcorn, but with different cooked method. This is a popular snack in here, across country. Burned over charcoal made from dried coconut shells, on a small ceramic grille, which gives them a delicious smoky and slightly charred flavour. The taste are vary between sweet, like other corn. Or other are spicy and salty.
I took under heavy shades, close with the street with available light.

Ma fois, une photo d'épis de maïs presque dramatique! un arrière-plan peu commun pour ce genre de photo! Original.

A beautful picture Hantu. You composed and framed it it properly. It makes my mouth water and long for one as we have the same way (almost) of cooking corn over charcoal.
