"When I was a young lad, I used to spend summers in Evergreen, Louisiana with my great-grandmother whom we all called “Mammy.” My all time favorite dessert was always her pecan pie, and no one else’s came close. One day, I asked for her recipe, and like the mischievous old lady she was, she laid a story on me about it being a “secret family recipe.” I bought it, hook line and sinker, until I noticed her looking up the recipe on a Karo corn syrup bottle. Mammy left us years ago, but I still remember her sly smile, her sharp wit, and her love for feeding her family."

Pair with a little caramel and it'll taste like home.
