Deliciously Twisted Classics

These dishes may look like one thing but are actually surprising taste bud twists that your eyes won’t believe. Chefs show off their culinary skills by creating visual twists on the classic Mexican street corn, strawberries and cream, carrot cake, Russian cabbage rolls, and the classic peanut butter u0026 jelly sandwich. All these deliciously twisted classics are way more than meets the eye.

Talented chefs are taking their favorite mom-made recipes and adding tasty twists and turns; shepherds pie, buttermilk pancakes, shrimp and grits, and tacos all get delicious makeovers that rival any moms masterpiece.

Chefs across the nation show off their most expensive creations by elevating classic foods with over-the-top ingredients; a 30-pound ostrich leg covered in gold leaf; the worlds most expensive milkshake; cannoli stuffed with caviar.

Talented chefs are revamping popular comfort foods and cranking them up to a new level of feel-good fun; a sweet grilled cheese sandwich for dessert, chicken pot pie, poutine and more all get an extra helping of imagination.

Chefs put a Japanese twist on the classic burrito; Southern shrimp and grits get a crunchy addition; nachos get a sweet strawberry spin; chicken and waffles are twisted with a sugary street snack; a Filipino favorite gets wrapped in a tortilla.

Chefs create a calzone with a clever catch, a hotter version of hot chicken, a cool spin on an ice cream sandwich, a crustacean filled croque monsieur, and a reimagined surf and turf.
