Last week, in the throes of a low-carb-induced delirium, I posted a bunch of stuff on BoingBoing about high-concept chow. Twinkies, sushi, chocolate, and combinations thereof. One of those entries pointed to a photo of "savory twinkies" by reader Ranjit Bhatnagar; he has now very kindly blogged the recipe for us all. He says, "Of course, it really comes down to 'Wrap cheese with polenta, bake, and serve,' but it was more fun to do a photo essay." If you look closely at the recipe photos, you can see a few clumps of snow from last week's New York blizzard. Link to Ranjit's recipe, and Link to a beautiful collection of "produce scans" on his blog.
Speaking of odd food, here's some Hello Kitty-shaped sushi (thanks numlok), and there is a chocolate cake disguised as a giant head of cabbage. (thanks, heidi). Special thanks to all the readers who submitted that website about people in Japan who carve elaborate designs in the flesh of watermelons -- but I'm kinda holding out for the website about people in Japan who carve elaborate watermelon designs in their own flesh.
