I made flowers with thin strips of peeler-sliced kamaboko.

It's fun to bend and shape kamaboko because it doesn't break easily. Half-width strips make smaller flowers and seem to look more authentic. Have fun experimenting with kamaboko's capabilities. Recipe by Mikki-an

Steps

1

Slice the kamaboko with a peeler. The flowers turn out better if you peel them to make slices with the color on the edges.
2

Use a knife to slice the leftover kamaboko for salad or other dishes.
3

Wrap the kamaboko with the pink edge up, and secure with a toothpick. Of course, white flowers made from white kamaboko are also cute.
4

Once the flower is secured, you can use them as a cup; open them up and fill them with corn.
5

Here, the kamaboko strips are tied in knots. Kamaboko is sturdy so it's fun to experiment with.
6

Here are toasted English muffins spread with okonomiyaki sauce and mayonnaise, and topped with lettuce, radish sprouts, and kamaboko strips.
7

The English muffin in the background is topped with a flat strip of kamaboko. They're easy to bite into that way.
8

Try slicing carrots or cucumber in the same way for delicious salad toppings.
