Celebrity recipes rated and improved suggestions

  • The wings were caramelized and brown, not crispy, and were tender but felt like they were missing something.
  • The flats benefited more from the cooking time than the drums, which got dry.
  • The wings were moist, melted in the mouth, and had a taste of brown sugar, soy sauce, and butter.
  • The wings were rated a B tier but had potential to be an S tier with more depth of flavor in the marinade and lower cooking temperature.
  • Elvis Presley's peanut butter banana sandwich did not include bacon, and the recipe involved toasting bread, mashing bananas, and adding peanut butter.
  • The sandwich was rated a C tier and could be improved by caramelizing the bananas, adding more sweetness, and toasting the bread in butter only.
  • Rihanna's mac and cheese recipe involved boiling pasta, adding vegetables, ketchup, mustard, and cheese, but lacked emulsification.
  • The dish was rated a C tier and could be improved by making a roux-based cheese sauce, sautéing and pureeing vegetables, and folding them into the cheese sauce.

Taylor Swift's Salted Caramel Cookies Recipe

  • The cookie recipe is described as moist, chewy, buttery, and light, with a caramelized exterior, but lacking in flavor due to the absence of salt, which is recommended to elevate it from a C to an S tier.
  • The recipe originates from Joy the Baker but was modified by Taylor Swift, involving steps like using a stand mixer to cream butter, adding vegetable oil, granulated sugar, powdered sugar, spices (ginger, cinnamon, cardamom, black pepper, nutmeg, allspice), egg, vanilla, and flour.
  • After chilling the dough, it is scooped into balls, rolled in cinnamon sugar, flattened, and baked at 350°F. A glaze of powdered sugar, nutmeg, and milk is made to ice the cookies once cooled.
  • The cookies are praised for their flavor and texture, though slightly overbaked, resulting in a crispy rather than chewy consistency. The addition of icing is appreciated, and the cookies are rated as A tier.
  • The pancake recipe by The Rock involves diced bananas, a mixture of flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, shredded coconut, eggs, coconut milk, coconut water, regular milk, vanilla extract, melted coconut oil, melted butter, and diced banana folded in. The pancakes are cooked and served with peanut butter, maple syrup, and brown sugar, earning an S tier rating for their exceptional flavor and texture.
