They sell Gojiberries (slightly sweetened) in Costco now. Very nice as a snack.

Thanks so much! How should I place the card board? Directly behind? How about the base if I want it to be white as well? Just prepare 2 card board for base and background?

I love wolfberries and grew up with them in Chinese herbal soups and in stews. My mum also puts them with steamed chicken pieces along with herbs like dang gui and red dates (and seasoning) for herbal steamed chicken. Speaking of which I should make that again soon… Thanks for the idea and looking forward to your recipes.

Mansi Desai - I am not familiar with Acai berries...what are they?

Eating Plum - I have posted my recipe, check it out.

Zen Chef - It's always nice to experiment with new ingredients. Good luck. :)

Katie - thanks for your nice word and thanks for leaving me a comment...now I know you. :)

Lydia - do take a trip to any Asian grocery stores, you will find new ingredients for your Perfect Pantry. ;)

Hochiak - I agree...steaming chicken with wolfberries are a wonderful idea!

Elliw - my camera is not $1000, actually it's about $500. Of course, one shouldn't invest in a DLSR just because of having a food blog. To me, it's an investment to capture moments, and capture memories--be it food, travel, people, or anything. However I have to say that even an inexperienced photographer can take pretty good nowadays with a good DLSR...;)

Joe--that's one of the reasons why I almost never bring my camera to restaurants, unless I travel to a new place.

Ling - cool...I am great to offer any help possible.

Veron - you already take great food photography...you do not need any tips or cheat sheet. Hehe.

Happy Cook - they are native to China, you should check them out. :)

WMW - yes, yes, those in tong sui...yummy!

Noobcook - Thanks for your sweet comment. You're so nice. :)

Christy - yes my late grandmother always told me, eat these more and your eyes will be bright and sharp. LOL.

MyF - cool. I am going to check your blog out for the post.

Aimei - just go to any stationary or office stores and get yourself some white paper cardboard. That's it. That's my secret. ;)

Thanks for your great tips! My house is often dark and not close to any natural lighting. If I have to, that’ll be on the floor near the door entrance. I do not have any nice background. There’s usually things on my table. Any tips to getting a totally white and bright, clear background like what you have?
