Another form of fusion food can be created by utilizing ingredients and flavors from one culture to create a unique twist on a dish from the different cultures. For example, a [[taco pizza]] is a type of [[pizza]] created using [[taco]] ingredients such as [[Cheddar cheese|cheddar]] and [[Monterey Jack|pepper jack cheese]], [[Salsa (Mexican cuisine)|salsa]], [[refried beans]], and other common taco ingredients, fusing both Italian and Mexican cuisines.<ref>{{cite web |title=Taco Pizza Recipe |url=http://allrecipes.com/recipe/taco-pizza/ |access-date=2012-05-31 |publisher=All Recipes}}</ref>

Similar approaches have been used for [[sushi|fusion sushi]], such as rolling [[Makizushi|maki]] with different types of rice and ingredients such as [[curry]] and [[basmati]] rice, cheese and salsa with [[Spanish rice]], or spiced ground [[Lamb and mutton|lamb]] and [[caper]]s rolled with Greek-style rice and grape leaves, which resembles inside-out [[dolma]]des. Some fusion cuisines have themselves become accepted as a national cuisine, as with [[Japanese Peruvians|Peruvian Nikkei]] cuisine, which combines Japanese spices and seasonings and Peruvian ingredients like [[Capsicum baccatum|ají]] with seafood. A quintessential Peruvian Nikkei dish is "maki acevichado" or "ceviche roll", consisting of [[ceviche]] with [[avocado]] rolled into maki.<ref name="Takenaka">{{cite journal |last1=Takenaka |first1=Ayumi |date=2017 |title=Immigrant integration through food: Nikkei cuisine in Peru |journal=Contemporary Japan |volume=29 |issue=2 |pages=117–131 |doi=10.1080/18692729.2017.1351022 |s2cid=134330815}}</ref>
