Food and Music: The Recipe Project

Therecipeproject Is food the new rock? Maybe so, according to The Recipe Project, which sets recipes from celebrity chefs to music.

The new book and CD (due out October 15) by the band One Ring Zero features "song-recipes" from chefs Mario Batali, John Besh, David Chang, Tom Colicchio, and Michael Symon, among others. Each song is tailored to the musical sensibility of the chef and the dish: Chris Cosentino's recipe for 'Brains and Eggs" gets a Beastie Boys style treatment while Michael Symon's "Octopus Salad with Black-Eyed Peas" veers into heavy metal.

Maroon 5's Adam Levine on Gristle

"To me, the fattier the cut, the better the steak. That’s probably why I love rib eyes—because they are the fattiest steaks you could possibly eat. And the gristle is my favorite part! Everyone thinks gristle is this horrible thing and you should stay away from it. They cut it off. But with the honey added to it, it tastes so good, it should be illegal."

What if Kanye West Was A Food Writer?

Screen shot 2011-01-12 at 2.11.30 PM

Someone has reimagined Kanye West as a budding food writer and created a Tumblr blog called "No One Man Should Have All That Flour" filled with song lyrics by West rewritten to be about food.

Take, for example, this version of West's rousing "All of the Lights," but recast about baking pies:

Got the oven here, baby
425° is how high the heat is
Bake up the pies in here, baby
You know what I need, want y’all to eat everything
Want you to eat all of the pies
Custard and there’s rhubarb
All of the pies, all of the pies
And after this I’ll make a cherry tart
All of the pies, all of the pies
