We have seen theculinary arts by Dinara Kasko and its extraordinary confectionery creations (read the article) and we also dealt with the human sushi (read the article). Today we want to show you the latest zoomorphic sculptures by. Masanori Kono.Made with grated daikon radish, his creations are prized in nabe, or Japanese hot dishes served during harsh Japanese winters.
His culinary arts is inspired by the kyaraben bento art, to his stylized animal forms, and then to a personal, delicate style that enlivens dishes with color and movement, with a soul all to look at and imagine.
The first project of Masanori Kono involved a grated polar bear radish sitting in a steaming pot of chopped bacon and Chinese cabbage.
His creation became so popular on the net that shortly thereafter, Kono made more. Lamas, pandas, sheep and many other animals lay on plates amidst steaming leaves and other colorful bedding, true food sculptures.
Flair, imagination, precision, technique and a lot of creativity. When food becomes art, when a dish tells a story.
