My wife and I have a long-standing tradition of making chili together. Keep in mind, there aren't many things we play nice with, so the chili is a kind of a nice thing. I call it our "love-chili"!
Anyway, we don't have a set recipe, so every time it's different. The other day, when we were making chili, I started looking around the spice rack for something we've never used and I found the perfect addition: powdered caramel popcorn seasoning!
My wife was totally against trying it, so I had to wait until she left the kitchen!
I tell ya, it worked out great! It adds this nice hint of sweetness you don't find in chili too often.
So, anyone else have a secret ingredient, or story of experimentation gone right- or wrong?
