					<description><![CDATA[Moist, lightly crumbly, and not overly sweet, this sourdough cornbread has the perfect balance of tenderness and texture. Sourdough discard adds subtle depth, while melted butter and medium-grind cornmeal create a delicious soft crumb with just a little grit. Baking the batter in a hot, buttered pan gives the cornbread golden, buttery edges that are hard to resist. ]]></description>

It's finished with a touch of hot sauce and liquid smoke to tie all the flavors together.]]></description>

Chai tea bags infuse flavor and aromatics into the tea, while a touch of vanilla and sweetener of choice adds balance. Warm frothed milk creates richness and mellows the tea.

					<description><![CDATA[After making this recipe, you'll never make stovetop Candied Maple Walnuts again! Consistent oven heat and just the right amount of time means the maple syrup is caramelized without crystalizing, creating a shiny, snappy candy coating on the walnuts. We're using walnut halves (no chopping), and making them without brown sugar for a flawless maple syrup sweetened finish! ]]></description>
