As an artist Peter Deligdisch is all about experimentation, but this is perhaps his greatest venture into the unknown yet.
On his YouTube channel Peter has used flower petals, shoes and even a bear skull as his medium, but in his latest escapade he dares to tackle a new canvas – ham.
Behold, the “Hamdala”.
“Not that I was actually doing a whole lot of cooking in this particular piece,” Peter told the Press Association.
“People already get carried away with cake decorating and even pancake art these days, and I’m sure that any chef worth his salt will make sure that a dish is presented in a very artful manner.
“You know how they do at fancy restaurants, drizzling sauces on the plate, placing the tiny amount of food down, carefully arranging some sprigs of this or that, so on and so forth. That’s art and cooking combined too.”

“The possibilities are endless, people send me messages every day with more suggestions of random mundane objects they see in their lives they think I should draw or create something with,” he said.
“But I’d be just as happy if they tried it themselves!”
