Spice up your (BBQ) with these hot dogs.

★How to make the dog bread★

Make the dough from your favorite bread recipe, using a bread maker.
Select DOUGH mode.
When it's done, push all the air out of the dough with your hands.
Divide it into 10(if you make the dough with about 250g flour) and roll each into a ball. Cover with wet paper towels and rest for 15mins.
Make each into a oval shape.
Cut with a knife to make the ears of the dogs, and let the dough rise until about double in size.
After the rise, make eyes and noses with black beans.
Bake for about 10 mins at 400F.

-- Thank you to Mayumi of Taste of Japan for the recipe.

 

Those are awesome. Way cooler than the standby Octopus hot dog.


Pretty simple, no explanation needed.

 

A virtual gallery of food by San Francisco-based food photographer Caren Alpert is up and live for viewing.
What makes the gallery unique is that each foodstuff is photographed as it is placed under an electron microscope.

Broccoli + balsa wood + craft knife + glue

Researchers at Japan's Ochanomizu University have developed a musical
fork whose sound varies depending on the resistance of the food you are eating.
Called EaTheremin, the fork relies on the body's ability to conduct electricity
(particularly the moist interior of the mouth) and thus form a circuit.

According to one of EaTheremin's developers, Reina Nakamori, the research team
is now experimenting with musical spoons. Their hope is that "because this creates a good
rhythm, people will want to eat more or try eating foods they didn't really like before."

"SALAD" - designed by Till Nowak (Germany)

additional clues:
In November 2006 Till Nowak created the image "Salad". For this image he created digital vegetable models
and combined them to become a tribute to the fantastic biomechanical creations of H.R. Giger and the
vegetable portraits of Giuseppe Arcimboldo. "Salad" is a purely educational and non-commercial work.
