Corn bread gets fancy in dainty individual portions — and the flecks of red add more than just cosmetic flair. These tiny bits of pimento provide bursts of flavor that marry the corn bread beautifully with the rest of the main course.

Cooks' note:

Muffins can be made 8 hours ahead and cooled completely, uncovered, then kept in an airtight container at room temperature. To reheat, arrange in 1 layer in a shallow baking pan, then sprinkle lightly with water and bake, covered with foil, in a 325°F oven until warm, about 10 minutes.
