It was just my dad and I growing up, so I had to learn to cook. Luckily, I really enjoyed cooking and loved creating recipes. Chili was one of my favorite things to make. For some reason, I liked to serve it with green beans. I was twelve, there’s no telling why. For years I made my same recipe over and over. One day, I stumbled upon a recipe that used individual spices, rather than a chili mix and was intrigued.
I like to add Worcestershire Sauce when I use ground turkey, as it gives a more beefy taste. I do a lot of Asian cooking and use Three Crabs Brand Fish Sauce a lot. It adds great flavor, without a fishy taste. It’s not only for Asian cooking. Dry a bit in other recipes and let me know what you think.
These days, we don’t eat much beef in this house, so I made some changes and tweaks and came up with a chili recipe that I much prefer and my old chili recipe was deleted from my life. If you prefer beef chili, here’s the recipe, Pressure Cooker Competition Chili Con Carne.
