We have abstract art, music, and dance - what about abstract cooking? |
|
Cooking is another one of the art forms - I've been considering this today, and trying to figure out what abstract cooking/food would be like. Is it even possible to have an "abstract" food?
And I'm not talking just a plating that is abstract, or going the dada route and serving toothbrushes with rocks and calling it "duck".
I can't come up with an answer that would still be edible, tasty, and safe to eat using legitimate guidelines for abstraction.

2. how about just a whole, unwashed cucumber on a plate? |
|
Or maybe a whole pumpkin? In such cases, the actual cooking would be quite "abstract"...I think.

3. Abstract preparations could include singing to food before serving |

Performing any action in relation to the food before serving that alters it in an abstract way. Tapping a peach to the rhythm of "shave and a haircut, two bits" before eating it could be considered abstract cooking, for example.
