Guest guest Posted January 6, 2009 Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 I made chili on Sunday -- I don't measure much, but here is approximately what I used: 1 med. white onion 1 14 oz can diced tomatoes 2 Roma tomatoes (because they were overripe) 2 tomatillos (these were overripe, too) 1 14 oz can kidney beans, drained and rinsed 1 12 oz package Quorn grounds 1 envelope William's chili seasoning 1 1/2 tsp Smoked Spanish Paprika -- is this the same " smoked paprika " everybody was talking about? I got it at Penzey's 2 tsp salt some water It was too sweet! I can't figure out what happened -- I didn't even use any brown sugar or ketchup, really! I was disappointed. Any help? Suggestions? Thanks! Audrey S. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 6, 2009 Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 Does your William's seasoning mix contain salt? You didn't mention adding any salt to your chili; its absence might contribute to the perception of sweetness. Alex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 6, 2009 Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 Ooops - I just re-read your recipe, and there certainly was salt there. Disregard what I wrote...... Alex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 6, 2009 Report Share Posted January 6, 2009 Kidney beans are a sweeter type bean than others. You could use some pinto's or black beans instead of the Kidney beans. Judy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
