This was made from dry beans and various veg from the produce drawer plus regular items like scratch made chili powder, onion, canned tomatoes, tomato paste, homegrown bell pepper. Oh, the veg was all sauteed in smoked hog jowel I rendered and crisped. And you gotta have cornbread.

This may sound like a dumb statement of mine, but I still don't know how to eat cornbread.

Like do you eat that instead of rice if you wanna eat cornbread? Or can you eat both rice and cornbread?

Other than that your dish looks lush!

It's a side like buttered bread. Crumble it up and let it dry for a day. Put it in a bowl and pour milk or heavy cream over it and eat it like cereal. Pour chilli over a slice of it. Top it with whipped cream and strawberries. Slather it with peanut butter and jelly for a delicate but tasty sandwich.

But I'd never eat it with rice. A rice substitute? Sure. But never with.

Woah, with strawberries and cream? In my mind that's a pound cake or shortcake job, I'll have to try corn bread.

[–] FauxPseudo@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago

It needs to be a sweet Southern corn bread. But, yes, it's a totally viable shortcake replacement. I prefer it. It's because even the sweetest of corn bread is not as sweet as shortcake

Ahh I see! It makes sense now, thank you.

Looks delicious! I absolutely love chili as a vehicle to use ingredients I need to get out of my fridge/pantry. I made a white chili this weekend with miso paste; adding red miso to beef chili is so good that I consider it a core chili ingredient, but I dont think light miso in white chili worked that well. Other main ingredients were chicken thigh, bacon, white beans, poblanos, cowhorns, chipotles, serranos, tomatoes and cumin

[–] FauxPseudo@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

That's a lively list of ingredients. Probably the most exciting white chili I've ever heard of.

More peppers more better, ya know? I've got a neighbor who grows them and she spoils me whenever she needs an oil change or something like that, haha

Is that sweet cornbread? Answer carefully 😡🔪

But for real, looks great!

[–] FauxPseudo@lemmy.world 6 points 4 days ago

Yes. I had to change my regular recipe because my wife likes hers sweet. But I do have a habit of using bacon fat even in this version.
