Thanksgiving Food Sculpture: A Holiday-Inspired Crazy Food Plating Episode
Manage episode 347333257 series 1728049
In this episode of GoGreenfields, the game of food sculpture is simple - prepare a plate of food like any plate anyone has ever seen. Shape it, stack it, sculpt it… whatever you do, be sure that you have created something that smells, tastes, and LOOKS amazing! River and Terran were certainly up to the challenge.
Food Sculpture - Terran’s Approach
Did you know that food has been used as art for over one thousand years. Many people credit Filippo Tommaso Marinetti as the first food artist. His cookbook was (is) really much more than a cookbook, which is obvious pretty quickly when you find recipes such as “ice cream on the moon”. Terran made it a goal to fool the taste tester with his food sculpture. You might do a double take when you realize that the “turkey” set before you is much more than a roast bird.
Food Sculpture - River’s Approach
Over the years, food has found its way into art in many different forms. There have been restaurants devoted to food art, served food sculptures at parties and galleries, displayed giant butter sculptures at fairs, and even disguised food in highly realistic showpieces. River was channeling that inspiration as he plated his “corn”. Be prepared, this corn will hit your sweet spot in a way the field grown variety can’t.
