They say food is art, but Sushi Art takes the concept to a WHOLE new level. Many expert sushi connoisseurs already consider sushi an art form but these reinterpretations of rice stuffed seaweed paper rolls take it to a whole new level. Best of all? They’re all completely edible!
For those interested, creating Sushi Art involves rolling and packing the rolls in a way that, once cut, will reveal the image inside the roll. While they look impossible to recreate, many are completely doable in your own kitchen. Here are 22 of our favorites!
