If you are able to buy chives with their pretty purple flowers, stir the petals into softened butter with a little honey—then smear over warm cornbread, you’re in for a treat. To make this with regular flour, simply use whole-wheat or all-purpose flour and omit the flaxseed. Best eaten the day it is made.
