Trish, I did everything exactly the way you said in the IM - but I thought a 'large' can of sauce was the 28-oz.

Posted by kelly (aka kelly) Nov 3 '08, 13:25

So, I used 2 of those, plus 2 more cans of water, the coffee, etc.

It was essentially tomato soup with meat n onions at the bottom of the pot.

next time I'll try it with the 14-oz cans, that sounds much better. I'm sure it will thicken right up with the amount of cornstarch I used.

Thanks!

Hee! I was just going to link you to "chili talk" on B2. - Trish Nov 3, 13:32 5
- bah, real chili is made by tossing in your own spices, not some premade mix. -- nm - tRuMaN Nov 3, 13:39 1
  - i 'm a purist about lots of things, but i don't get that. if you find a mix that you like that has good ingredients in it, why not? - citizen b. Nov 3, 13:51
- Yeah, that's what I used, actually. - kelly Nov 3, 13:34 2

- I've known people who do that--it's almost as crazy as putting spaghetti or macaroni in your chili! - Trish Nov 3, 13:34 2
  - well, its more of a umm, watering down - tRuMaN Nov 3, 13:36 1
    - I don't use water either. - kelly Nov 3, 13:46

  - well, any good recipe should include the size of the containers being used. -- nm - tRuMaN Nov 3, 13:37
wait, wait, wait a minute...I just read tomato so I'm guessing this is spaghetti sauce... - Mel Profit Nov 3, 13:28 18

    - *adds "But I was gonna go to Toshii Station!" to sauce* -- nm - Reagen Nov 3, 13:44
    - that's sounds radical and interesting. -- nm - Mel Profit Nov 3, 13:38 2
      - what part is the radical part? -- nm - Roger More Nov 3, 13:40 1
        
        white wine and flour. -- nm - Mel Profit Nov 3, 13:47
  - The last sauce he made was very very good. And there were nummy meatballs too... -- nm - Diva Nov 3, 13:33
  - Ok, chilli sauce then Trish's your girl. - Mel Profit Nov 3, 13:33 9
    - You should do the honourable thing and post it here -- nm - Roger More Nov 3, 13:36
    - It's the cup of strong coffee and the dark chocolate that make my chili irrestible :) - Trish Nov 3, 13:36 3
      - I use cocoa, but same principle. -- nm - Reagen Nov 3, 13:45 1
