Earlier, I posted here about now-President Obama's favorite food, Chili. I made the his version a few days ago.

The chili was interesting, quite different from MY favorite chili. There was hardly any liquid, only 3 tablespoons of vinegar for an entire pound of meat. The tomatoes cooked down a bit, adding a little more liquid, but the chili was much more of a casserole consistency than a soup consistency.

The flavor from the spices was very tasty. I enjoyed the flavors of cumin and tumeric, which I don't normally use.

It was fun to try a different version of chili, but I think I'll be sticking with my recipe. The thinkness and richness of my chili makes my mouth water just thinking about it. I love the kick, and how I can tone it down by eating it with rice. I love the smell as it cooks, filling the whole house with the aroma...Oh, I really need to schedule chili for next week...
