The rice vinegar is the hero.
Despite an overnight rise, these waffles are meant to be whipped up on a whim, on those late nights when you just know brunch is in the cards. To honor that impulse, the batter comes together in five minutes flat, and in the morning there's nothing left to do but plug in your iron. Minutes later, you'll be enjoying crisp and fluffy waffles, rich with brown butter and chewy from the slow interaction of flour and water.

@kyle Thanks for your "how to not write like ai" skill. I've been using it today to write first drafts of docs and it's doing a pretty good job. I feel more compelled to play fast and loose with "We should make a doc for this" knowing that it'll be 90% of the way there and just needs some tweaks/vetting.
Addendum: I'm a former creative director and not sounding like an idiot is important to me. It's supporting this goal pretty well.

A good way to make butternut feel fancy
Pollo asado, Mexican marinated and grilled chicken, uses pigmented annatto seeds to get its signature brick red color. Annatto seeds can be found in Latin supermarkets or online, but a cube of prepared achiote paste is a suitable sub. This recipe uses two types of dried chiles, for which there are no substitutes; however, if they’re hard to come by, swap them out for a can of seeded chipotles in adobo for a different, but still delicious, smoky vibe. The acidity from the citrus in the marinade helps tenderize the chicken legs, but a limit does exist; keep it under 12 hours. Serve the chicken alongside pickled onions and warm tortillas for quick tacos, or beans and rice.

Kinda basic. The sauce carries it.
In 2026, I can think "This Hearth display annoys the hell out of me, I wish I could fix it" and within 4 hours I can have a clone running *on the same device* that runs on a local server instead.
2.75 hours to figure out how to reliably install an app wrapping a web view on their antique Android version, 1 hour to build the app, and 15 minutes to factory reset after I sent it into a boot loop 😬
