This was made from dry beans and various veg from the produce drawer plus regular items like scratch made chili powder, onion, canned tomatoes, tomato paste, homegrown bell pepper. Oh, the veg was all sauteed in smoked hog jowel I rendered and crisped. And you gotta have cornbread.
Cost per person: ~$1.70
Looks delicious! I absolutely love chili as a vehicle to use ingredients I need to get out of my fridge/pantry. I made a white chili this weekend with miso paste; adding red miso to beef chili is so good that I consider it a core chili ingredient, but I dont think light miso in white chili worked that well. Other main ingredients were chicken thigh, bacon, white beans, poblanos, cowhorns, chipotles, serranos, tomatoes and cumin
That’s a lively list of ingredients. Probably the most exciting white chili I’ve ever heard of.
More peppers more better, ya know? I’ve got a neighbor who grows them and she spoils me whenever she needs an oil change or something like that, haha
Awesome.
