As I'm a newbie to Calibre and recipe, I might not fully understand you. So I clarified what I had done:
--------
Actually, I wanted to append author to the description so I added this code to parse_index() in foreign_policy.recipe:
desc += '<br>'
desc += author

then, run:
ebook-convert calibre/recipe/foreign_policy.recipe ./ebook.epub -d ./log --output-profile kindle_oasis -vv

then opened ebook.pub and jumped to a section menu. The line break was not output as I expected.

I checked log/processed/feed_0/index.html. The line break was not output as well.
