Pune-based Pranav Joshi is on a mission to make 31 dishes this October. The project is inspired by the Inktober prompts that come out every year. Joshi is using food to engage audiences with a visual story that not only includes a video but also interesting facts about the dish

Neither is Pranav Joshi a trained chef or has done a course in the culinary arts nor is he a professional artist but what the Punekar does know is the art of storytelling. It is this very skill that he is using to combine his love for food and art to make what he likes to call “Inktober-influenced food”. He does it by using the daily prompts some of which have included words such as ‘gargoyle’, ‘eagle’, ‘forget’ and even some of the most unimaginable words like ‘booger’ and Joshi has a plan for that too.

After 18 days, Joshi’s Instagram account called @floydiancookery is a colourful grid of food swatches that will only make you watch them all. From a Victorian Sandwich for ‘gargoyle’ to a Crème Brulee for ‘flame’ and even a colourful Kaju Gulkand Laddoo for ‘bouquet’ - his account is a visual treat not only for those who love food videos but also art because every single one of them has a thought behind it – you may not get some at first but if you scratch your head, the answer is definitely there for you.
