garlic. Cook until Meat is browned but still soft. 2. Add tomato sauce,
catsup, water and vinegar. When mixture boils, add the rest of the
salt,the remaining spices and herbs, the honey and chocolate. Adjust
seasonings, adding more salt if it needs perking up, more cumin for a more
strident chili flavor, more cinnamon and mace if you want it more aromatic,
more cardamom for more band and more chocolate for more body. 3. Cover and
simmer on very low heat for about 1 hour, stirring and tasting occasionaly,
adding tomato juice if it is getting too dry. It should be a thick sauce.
Discard bay leaf. 4. For 5 way chili(use small oval plate if available),
layer spaghetti on the plate, top it with chili, then with a sparse layer
of kidney beans & then choped, raw onions. Pat on the cheese while the
chili is still hot and serve immediately, with oyster crackers on the side.
You may, if desired, omit either the beans or onions, or both, for 3way
chili or 4way chili. Serves 4 MMNorma Wrenn NPXR56B
