Food Blogger Makes Lunchtime Fun with Dog-shaped Fried Chicken

posted on by Bamboo Dong

If you've been on the internet long enough, you'll know that some people have a lot of time on their hands when it comes to creating beautiful lunches. Just Google "bento art" and you'll see a treasure trove of intricate lunches, portraying everything from woodland creatures, to famous paintings, to anime characters.

Japanese food blogger @hinami11 has been dazzling the Twittersphere with a new food creation—dog-shaped fried chicken, which uses chicken thigh meat, flour and seasoning, dried spaghetti, and seaweed to form bite-sized animals so cute you almost won't want to eat them.

Here's her step-by-step tutorial (click on the link after the raw chicken bits to expand the page and view all the steps), which involves snipping chicken chunks to look like dog heads, then sticking the bodies and heads together with fried spaghetti skewers, and adding hole-punched seaweed circles with mayo for the eyes and noses.


Use scissors to cut ears.

Top: head parts; bottom: body parts. The blogger notes that people should make more bodies than heads, because the bodies are more likely to come out looking weird after being fried.

Use a hole-punch to make circles of nori.

Attach the head to the body using fried spaghetti skewers. Add facial features using the nori circles and mayonnaise.

The blogger noted that cherry tomatoes make it look as though the dogs are playing with balls, though hopefully it doesn't dissuade you from biting their heads off.

For other cute food, you can check out her blog where she teaches people how to make snowman and reindeer stews, anime-decorated sweet potato cakes, and anime tofu dumplings.
