Chefs Allison Vines-Rushing & Slade Rushing were credited as contributors & the recipe included this description: "When they are not adding a Southern ingredient to a French recipe, chefs Allison Vines-Rushing & Slade Rushing are adding a French ingredient to a Southern recipe. For this recipe, crème fraîche replaces buttermilk in these extremely fluffy biscuits."
