Here are 13 unique recipe innovations for creative and domestic people. From interactive grocery store cooking to off-runway fashion shows by Betsey Johnson, you'll read about different takes and one-of-a-kind recipes for those who like to experiment in the kitchen in the slideshow below.
There are even musical recipes for those who like to hear their ingredients sung to them!
Implications - Stir fry and mash potatoes are all good, but as the world evolves, so do ideas and pallets.

Whether it's Richard Blais' use of liquid nitrogen to make fried bone marrow or Wylie Dufresne's gastronomical-inspired techniques, chefs such as these two will always find a way to cook up strange combinations of food with unusual mad scientist methods.
