I don't care if beans are chili sacrilege, it's good. Much like pineapple pizza is very good, despite what naysayers might think.

If I had to add anything else, it would be bacon, for it's crispiness and saltiness, to juxtapose the dulcet squish of the lightly cooked pineapple on the slice. However, I accept your Hawaii-esque variant on the pizza and will not ridicule you for choosing it instead of some minimalist fetishist recipe.

I'm asking more if anybody yells at other people for 'mistakenly' calling Chicago style pizza 'pizza' in that thread. Putting cheddar cheese and pepperoni on macaroni elbows would be 'cincinatti pizza' and it would also make me very angry.

What if you put cheddar cheese and an 'American goulash' style topping (that is, ground beef, paprika, tomato based sauce with typically macaroni elbows) on top of pizza? That could be really good, if a bit sacrilegious. e: or really gross

I have enough spare ribs for two different meals. Anyone here have a preference for bone vs cartilage end in chili/stew/whatever, or should I use a mix of both? The other thing I'm planning on making works just fine with either end, so I can cut it up however I feel like

Bones would sweat wonderfully and make for a very rich and tasty liquid to bubble your meat in.

The other thing I'm making isn't really a stew though, so I guess I'll reserve the tips for that. Thanks

BraveUlysses posted:I've used my vitamix to annihilate dried peppers into powder, but I still had to smash some of the larger bits in a mortar & pestle. The recipe I use calls for the chili powder to be mixed with flour and cumin, then sprinkled over the beef right after it finishes browning. Basically it's to coat the beef. Powder theoretically works better for this than a paste would. Plus powder is just easier. Stop making chili so drat complicated, people!

Powder may work better in that situation, but that's irrelevant, as "coating the beef" is a really pointless thing to do.

I've never attempted "serious" chili and was thinking of starting by giving this a go. The only thing is it calls for a teaspoon of marmite, which I know I'm not going to find at the store down the street. Is there anything that could substitute, could I omit it, or should I go out of my way to get a jar? (I've never had it, so I don't know exactly what taste I should be going for)

Go ahead and skip it, but add a dash of fish sauce and Worcestershire instead.

(I've never had it, so I don't know exactly what taste I should be going for) It's a damned good chili. I don't make that one regularly because there's just a ton of ingredients and I'm lazy, but I've done it a few times just to do it and it's definitely delicious. That, and you can just mix and match some of the techniques (Making the chili paste with the broth, browned bits, and spices, or adding the blast of bourbon/vinegar/frank's at the end of the cook) to fit your own preferences of meat, spices, etc. Echoing the previous poster to just use extra anchovy paste/fish sauce/soy sauce in place of the Marmite.

Stew meat isn't even that good a deal half of the time. It's almost never on sale, and the price isn't usually any better than buying chuck/round/whatever and cutting it up yourself. It works fine, but you can really do better

I found that adding a ratio of 1/3 homemade habanero powder 2/3 green chili powder adds a really nice kick that still comes off as smooth. When drying however habeneros tend to finish a lot faster than chilies as they tend to have much thinner skin.gwrtheyrn posted:Stew meat isn't even that good a deal half of the time.

It works fine, but you can really do better I count myself very fortunate to have a grocery store that is fairly poorly ran. By this I mean not many people frequent it due to bad management, and thus they never move all their meat product in time. I find grass fed beef and good pork 50% off all the time there. The point I am trying to make is if you are going to experiment with a dish like chili, find a store that can provide reliably cheap ingredients if at all possible.

I'll see how it goes tonight or tomorrow.

So getting back to my homemade chili powder thing... I have some questions about this recipe. 1. Since all of the peppers I'm using are dried chilis, do I need to de-seed them first? 2. Can I just toast the peppers in the oven, like that one goon suggested doing? Instead of doing what the recipe in that link says to do? 3. If the answer to #2 is yes, then what temperature should I set the oven to? Also, about how long should I leave the chilis in the oven for, so I have a guideline just in case I have trouble telling exactly when they "start to become aromatic" or whatever. I need to make this stuff this afternoon, or my roommate is gonna yell at me for overcrowding our fridge with thawing/thawed meat, so if I could get some answers on these within the next few hours then I'd be reeeeeeeal happy.

You can toast in the microwave and it takes like 30 seconds. If you're toasting/blooming other spices too though you may as well use the frying pan. You can leave the seeds in if you want it extra hot, I usually cut the tops off the dried chilies and dump out whatever will come out, but don't worry about it otherwise.

Dr. Gitmo Moneyson posted:So getting back to my homemade chili powder thing... 1. Yeah, you don't want burnt seeds, and the oils are mainly contained in the seeds - just like nuts, they go from warm to burnt almost immediately. 2. Yeah, go for it. I usually toast in a pan, because it's easier to tell when they're where I want them, but the oven works fine too. 3. It can take a varying amount of time. You should be able to smell them - and when you can, leave them to cool.

Deseed if you can, seeds are no good to cook or eat. The heat is mainly in the placenta and pith holding the seeds. IE, if you deseed by running a knife/spoon along the inner wall of a fresh chilli, you are cutting off the hot placenta/pith. If you have a dried chilli and tap all the dried seeds out, you aren't loosing much heat or flavour. E: I prefer to toast under a broiler/grill rather than an oven or pan. A pan means constant tossing, and easy to over do it and the pan stays hot. An oven means you can't smell or otherwise monitor it's progress. A broiler grill tray stays pretty cool, and just needs a few shakes every so often (grill with the door open). Fo3 fucked around with this message at 12:47 on Apr 27, 2015 |

I tried doing some chili powder peppers in the oven. Used all dried chili peppers. Opened them. Removed every (and I mean every) seed. Preheated the oven to 450. Put them in the oven. Left them in about 2 or 3 minutes. They completely burned up, turned black and smoked up the whole room. Please tell me what I did wrong. Fo3 posted:Deseed if you can, seeds are no good to cook or eat. How the hell am I supposed to remove the seeds without removing that other stuff? I was actually wondering this as I deseeded the batch I just mentioned.
