Tokyo-based sushi chef Tama-chan creates ‘makizushi’ or ‘rolled sushi’ creations.
By arranging the rice (which is often colored by food dye, soy sauce and green wasabi) and other ingredients inside the seaweed exterior, she is able to create images which are exposed when she slices the roll. She has re-created famous works of art like Edvard Munch’s “The Scream” and other fun things like cats, flowers, skulls, and, even a baby in the womb.
(You can see more of her sushi art at her blog Sushi smile of Tama-chan).
And do you fancy ice cream sushi? It is now a menu item at Japanese sushi chain Uokura. It consists of vinegared sushi rice (“sumeshi”), dried seaweed (“nori”), and is topped with vanilla and green tea ice cream.
This is not wasabi. Image credit: http://laughingsquid.com/japanese-restaurant-chain-now-serving-ice-cream-sushi/
