Five Favorite Foods + DIY Sushi

 

 

 

 

I made  this food collage in honor of Brock’s birthday. I quizzed him on his five favorite foods and of course he listed 20! It’s a tough question to answer, I know. I narrowed the list down to spicy tuna (especially on crispy rice), corn (he’s from Kansas), hamachi sashimi (the boy loves his sashimi), avocados (they make everything rich and creamy), and oranges (obligatory glass of fresh squeezed orange juice in the mornings). I always eat what I collage, so naturally, we had a DIY sushi session afterwards. My knife cuts need work and my rolling skills need tightening, but still, interactive meals are so fun and this one was pretty tasty.


 

It’s almost impossible to choose, but my top five foods are dark chocolate, shiitake mushrooms, avocados, uni, and oxtails. Ask me tomorrow and I’m sure the list will change.  So, what are your top five favorite foods?

    let me start by saying, I absolutely loove your pictures.. Hope some day to be as creative..
    I have never thought of my Top Five, so it took my some time to figure them out:
    1. chocolate, 2. parmasan, 3. raw meat (beef, lax ..), 4. spinach, 5. fresh raspberries..
    And I’m sure that as you, the list will change tomorrow :)

    Love/ Charlotte

      Thank you, Charlotte! I love your top five and now I'm kicking myself for forgetting Parmesan. ;)

    I just recently discovered your website and I’m in love with it! Makes me want to go on food adventures and forget about the rest, good grief! It all looks so wonderful! I’m an illustrator and I’ve been thinking about doing some food illustrations. Your website has surely fueled the inspiration.

    My top 5 favorite foods…hmmm…I’d say: rice, avocados, olives, eggs and coffee.

    Best!
