I like to add half the onions last so they stay crisp.

The trick is to undercook the onions

doug-point-cry "undercook the onions" this is wrong thought, mods ban this person.

If 'appreciating texture variation and a broader flavor profile' is the new struggle session, I'm all for it.

If the Impossible is too expensive, I found Bon's Red Mill TVP works pretty well in a vegan chili. If you are going heavy on the beans(as you should), it mostly becomes background texture and you barely notice the somewhat spongy TVP taste.

Veggie chili goes hard as hell. Especially when you have a thin-bottomed pot that burns easyand gets you some crispy bits

[–] FloridaBoi@hexbear.net 4 points 1 month ago

Unintentional burning and crisping is underrated

I love doing chili in a slow cooker, throw everything together in the morning and put it on low, it'll be ready by dinner. Chili is one of those things that's better the longer it cooks, and better the next day. A few other ingredients that I love to add:

  • chipotles in adobo sauce (get rid of the seeds if you want less heat, but these will make it spicier regardless)
  • chocolate (I just throw in some chocolate chips, a little sugar doesn't hurt things)
  • MSG (great way to add some more umami, especially if you're going vegan. Just be careful not to overdo it)
