That was a good one; I tend to add more bay leaves and nuttmeg/allspice/cinnamon to that iteration.
🤓
That's a more dangerous topic than "Pineapple On Pizza -- Yea Or Nay?" lol
I'm an irritating Unitarian Universalist when it comes to chili recipes -- if it works for you, then go for it. I tend to reject silly rules like "no beans," though. As with BBQ there are many types...
Sometimes olive oil, sometimes bacon (or turkey bacon), sometimes not. Sometimes a beer in it, sometimes tequila, sometimes not.
Gator chili is a fave, as is green chicken chili.
Answer: Maybe? 😉
My personal favorite chili recipe. I doctor it just a bit with some ground sausage, play around with the spices, and usually add a capful of acv.

The "How To Eat Chili" part was particularly helpful. 😉
Food And Wine has a typical Cincinnati-style (or "Skyline" lol) recipe. Some peeps look askance at this variant but it's yummy...
@InUnfunky @ExecutiveFunction404 @CanisPundit In our house, it’s 3-way for me, 4-way for Mr. Carolina. Get your minds out of the gutter; I’m talking about serving my Cincinnati style chili.
@InUnfunky @ExecutiveFunction404 @CanisPundit @cassandra17lina
♥️ Cincinnati chili too
@InUnfunky @CanisPundit @cassandra17lina
Yea, the jump to recipe button is my favorite. I don't bother with their life stories when I'm trying to make a meal 😂
I like my chili over egg noodles sometimes. While I make a thick meat sauce, it's nowhere near as thick as the chili. Does the spaghetti hold the chili well? It seems it'll just slide right off lol
I would probably cook the spaghetti about halfway, then finish it off in the chili itself, so it absorbs the chili flavor 😋
@ExecutiveFunction404 @InUnfunky @CanisPundit
I also include pinto beans with black & kidney late in the cook. Chopped tomatillos, green chilis, fresh jalapeños, with tomato mix, lots of garlic, frozen corn, sometimes can of beer if I have.
Must have good cornbread on the side or break up in the chili. Garnish shredded cheese, sliced green onions, sliced black olives, avocado chunks, sour cream, fresh jalapeño slices.

You're making me hungry but I'm gonna pick the corn out of it.
❤️ 🤓
Cilantro's absence is noted; I OTOH dump tons of the fresh stuff into most chili (with Cincinnati-style being the exception) both during cooking and as a topping. Fresh jalapenos as well, depending upon who's eating...
@InUnfunky @LnzyHou @ExecutiveFunction404 @cassandra17lina
So far no chili war has broken out. There’s more in chili we have in common than what divides us. #Chili2024
@CanisPundit @InUnfunky @ExecutiveFunction404 @cassandra17lina
There are infinite variations. I love them all.

Cilantro tastes like soap to me. I keep trying but I’m forever in the soap group. Wish I wasn’t.
Corn only if I feel Mexican. Could serve over tortilla chips But have to say my ex’s Texas heritage had a lot to do with my recipe. He taught me a lot.
Pinto beans served over cornbread with cut up raw onions & sweet relish was a favorite too.
@LnzyHou @ExecutiveFunction404 @InUnfunky double plus on the cornbread! Cornbread with sharp cheddar and fresh jalapeños rocks.
@CanisPundit @ExecutiveFunction404 @InUnfunky
Long & slow as in most things. 😋
@CanisPundit @LnzyHou @ExecutiveFunction404 @InUnfunky
you mentioned cornbread😋
i made some yesterday, changed up by using ⅓ chickpea flour along with ⅔ cornmeal and the rest, corn, cheese, and stirring in a couple teaspoons or so of lemon juice just before pouring it into the pan makes it fluffier.
@holon42 @LnzyHou @ExecutiveFunction404 @InUnfunky
Interesting tip with the lemon juice👍
@CanisPundit @LnzyHou @ExecutiveFunction404 @InUnfunky
all the Indian recipes for using chickpea flour add a bit of lemon juice to make the texture fluffier. just discovered that recently. it's terrific.
@holon42 @CanisPundit @ExecutiveFunction404 @InUnfunky
Every dish is better with the addition of acid. It wakes up the palette.
@holon42 @CanisPundit @LnzyHou @ExecutiveFunction404 @InUnfunky
Lemon juice in pancakes makes them tender. Will have to try in cornbead💛
@damselfly59 @CanisPundit @LnzyHou @ExecutiveFunction404 @InUnfunky
it's very versatile 👍🏼
@LnzyHou @ExecutiveFunction404 @InUnfunky @CanisPundit
Add a little mesquite flour to the cornbread recipe and it will be much tastier.
@LnzyHou @InUnfunky @CanisPundit
I married a man who, although he's Puerto Rican, doesn't like spicy foods. It's been rough 😭
Garlic is a must. I'm a terrible chef, but a fantastic recipe follower (usually lol). I always double the garlic in recipes. It's a must. It's also probably why I love white clam pizza so much. It's like 75% garlic & oil flavored 😂
@ExecutiveFunction404 @InUnfunky @CanisPundit
White Clam Pizza—hell yes!
@LnzyHou @InUnfunky @CanisPundit
After I wrote it, I was debating heading to pepe's or sally's for a mini pie 😂
@CanisPundit if not, I’ll share mine for Cincinnati style chili…
