As far as fusion cooking goes, there have been some fairly unorthodox mash-ups in recent times.
But a new blend of two seemingly disparate subjects - cooking and hip hop - is set to take both bookshops and kitchens by storm.
Rapper's Delight: The Hip Hop Cook Book, published by Dokument Press, has mixed up some of the nation's best-loved recipes with a dash of hip hop spirit, and resulted in creations including Wu-Tang Clam Chowder, Public Enemiso Soup, Run DM Sea Bass and Busta Key Lime Pie.
Each recipe is accompanied by unique artwork from up-and-coming artists.
Chuck D, of Public Enemy, said: "There are all aspects of Hip Hop, but the best of it has unique blending of ingredients, detailed preparation as well as great taste. Rapper's Delight connects like great food, and makes too much sense."
Rapper's Delight: The Hip Hop Cook Book is available from selected retailers including Urban Outfitters and HMV.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
