- How do you want to be cooked? -

 

 

This is a self initiated project started from a question of "How do you wanted to be cooked?".

 

Started from myself, I drew a series of illustrations showing the process of I'd like to be cooked as an ingredient but most importantly been cooked without any pains. From the first series of my recipe, I started to ask friends to write a piece of recipe of cooking themselves in the ways they wanted. 

The final product is a series of cook books with 6 of illustration recipes.
