Hey there, fellow anime lovers and foodies! In this episode of Anime-Inspired Eats, we’re diving into the world of Jujutsu Kaisen to make a delicious, cursed snack Ryomen Sukunas Finger from Jujutsu Kaisen! If you’ve ever dreamed of making a dish that looks both creepy and tasty, this is the one. This recipe is inspired by Sukuna’s famous cursed fingers (but no worries, we won’t actually summon any evil spirits… just yummy food).
Method
1. Preheat the oven
Start by preheating your oven to 180ºC (350ºF). This ensures that the oven is at the right temperature and ready for baking the cursed fingers once they’re shaped and ready to go.
2. Mix the dough
In a mixing bowl, combine the melted unsalted butter, honey, plain flour, and a pinch of salt. Stir the ingredients together until they are well combined. Now, add the red food coloring to achieve the desired color of the “skin” of the fingers. The amount of food coloring you use will depend on how vibrant you want the color to be. Mix the dough until it forms a smooth, workable consistency. Once the dough is ready, divide it into 7-8 equal portions. The size of the portions will depend on how large or small you want each finger to be.
3. Shape the fingers
Lay a piece of parchment paper on your working surface to prevent the dough from sticking. Roll each portion of dough into a cylindrical shape to resemble a finger. You’ll want to make sure the dough is evenly shaped and smooth on all sides. Next, use your fingers to gently press down and create subtle indentations along the length of the dough to form the “wrinkles” and “lines” of the finger. If you want, you can also add small pieces of dough to create knuckles and any other details that make the fingers look more realistic. For extra precision, use a toothpick to press deeper indentations into the dough for the grooves, and shape the edges to make them more lifelike.
4. Add the nail
Once your finger shapes are ready, it’s time to add the cursed “nail.” Take an almond and gently press it into the tip of each finger, ensuring that it stays securely in place. To make the nail look more like Sukuna’s cursed finger, paint the almond with black food coloring. You can also apply a small amount of black food coloring around the tip of the finger to enhance the effect and make it look even more sinister. This step really brings the finger to life with a creepy and authentic look.
5. Bake the fingers
Now that your fingers are shaped and the nails are in place, it’s time to bake them. Place each finger carefully on a baking tray lined with parchment paper. Ensure they are spaced out evenly so they don’t touch during baking. Put the tray in the oven and bake for 5 minutes. This initial baking step will firm up the dough and set the shape of the fingers.
6. Egg wash
After the first 5 minutes of baking, carefully remove the tray from the oven. Take a brush and apply a thin layer of egg wash to the top of each finger. The egg wash will give the fingers a golden, glossy finish when they’re fully baked. Once you’ve brushed the egg wash on all the fingers, place the tray back into the oven and bake for another 5 minutes. This will allow the egg wash to set and the fingers to reach a nice, golden brown.
7. Cool and serve
Once the fingers are done baking, remove the tray from the oven and let the fingers cool for a few minutes. Allowing them to cool will make them easier to handle and prevent any burns when you serve them. Once cooled, the cursed fingers are ready to devour! Enjoy this creepy yet delicious treat, and impress your friends with your anime-inspired cooking skills.

minutesIngredients
50g melted unsalted butter
80g honey
150g sifted plain flour
Pinch of salt
Red and/or purple food coloring
Black food coloring
Almonds (for the “nails”)
Egg wash (for glazing)
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 180ºC (350ºF), so we’re ready to bake these cursed fingers.
- Mix the dough In a mixing bowl, combine the melted unsalted butter, honey, plain flour, and a pinch of salt. Add the red food coloring until you get the desired color for the “skin” of the fingers. Mix until the dough forms, and then divide it into 7-8 equal portions (the size depends on how big you want your fingers).
- Shape the fingers Place a piece of parchment paper on your working surface. Roll each piece of dough into finger shapes. Use your fingers to press down and shape the dough, adding extra dough to create the lines, grooves, and even little faces on the finger. You can use a toothpick to make deep indentations to make the “wrinkles” on the finger.
- Add the nail Take an almond and gently press it into the tip of each finger. Paint some black food coloring on the almond to mimic the cursed nail. You can also paint around the “finger” to make it look extra cursed.
- Bake the fingers Place your shaped dough on a baking tray lined with parchment paper and bake for 5 minutes.
- Egg wash After 5 minutes, remove the tray from the oven and brush the top of each finger with egg wash (this will make them golden and shiny). Pop the tray back into the oven for another 5 minutes.
- Cool and serve Remove the fingers from the oven and let them cool before you devour them. Enjoy your very own cursed snack!
Notes
- Handling the dough can be a bit sticky, so make sure you keep your hands lightly dusted with flour to make shaping easier.
- Food coloring Be careful when using the food coloring, especially the black, as it can stain clothes and countertops. It’s best to use gloves or cover your work surface with parchment paper.
- Almond placement Press the almond gently into the dough so it sticks, but don’t press too hard. It should be placed firmly, but not too deep, to avoid cracking the dough.
