You access uploaded data via request.FILES['field_name'].

Reading more about Google's Image API, seems to me you should be doing something like this:

from google.appengine.api import images

image = Image(request.FILES['image'].read())
image = image.resize(100, 100)
recipe.large_image = db.Blob(image)
recipe.put()

request.FILES['image'].read() should work because it's supposed to be a Django's UploadedFile instance.
