I’m making some very basic chili. I have a can of black beans thats near expiry. Will adding it to my chili ruin it? It would be a 2:1 ratio of kidney beans to black beans.

    My simple philosophy on chili is to put whatever the hell you want in it as long as it has peppers, chili powder, cumin, oregano, tomato and beans. Meat too, if you like it. I’m sure purists would hate my chili but I don’t care.

      Anyone who considers themselves a chili purist is out of their mind. That’s one of the most insane stances to hold.

        I agree, but they exist! The amount of people who take extreme stances on chili ingredients is wild.

        I just want something spicy, beany, tomato-y and meaty. At that point add in whatever you want.

      I had never thought of putting cumin in my chili, but I could see that working. I’ll have to remember that. My top tip: Dark chocolate.

      Had a chili recently that had beetroot in - a little disconcerting when the juice has a bright pink tinge to it, but tastes good.
