What exactly is "New American" cuisine?

With a huge assortment of traditions and cultures to draw from, it can be hard to pin down a food or cooking style that embodies that theme. Instead, think of that "melting pot" adage - taking the flavors of many to create something new and delicious.

Knife & Tine explains this New American concept perfectly with every dish. Chef Richard Ginn starts with traditional dishes like arancini and deviled eggs and infuses them with distinctly American tastes. Expect some Louisiana spices or New York cheddar to bring the dishes home.

The deviled eggs are a fun and familiar starter, with flavors changing based on the chef's whim.

The arancini, a traditional spicy rice ball, gets its heat from n'duja sausage and includes a Southern touch of pimento cheese.
