#202138 - 04/11/10 01:46 PM Take out the sting...?
jabber Member Registered: 02/17/05 Posts: 10032 Loc: New York State	Chatty or others, I need a good cook's advice! I, accidentally, made chili hotter than WB and I like it. [I grabbed a can of extra spicy tomatoes.] I had some left over and put it in the freezer. Now I'm thinking of thawing it up and using it; but, How do I lessen/lighten the spiciness? Any suggestions? Thank you in advance! Edited by jabber (04/11/10 01:49 PM) _________________________ https://www.amazon.com/author/bonnie.mill-lemke https://kdp.amazon.com/en_US/bookshelf

Cookie Member Registered: 06/02/06 Posts: 753 Loc: USA	Yep, like DD said, a bit of sour cream or yogurt will help take the "bite" out a little. You can also add a litle sugar or honey....or a large can of unsalted tomatoes.

jabber Member Registered: 02/17/05 Posts: 10032 Loc: New York State	DD and Cookie, Thank you so much. I'll try the sour cream first and if that doesn't help, I'll try the honey, then sugar. I hate to waste food; it costs so darn much. I rarely get out of a super market for less than $100.00 per visit. Good grief. I can't just throw it out. You ladies are dolls.

Works everytime and you'll have chili enough for two times this way when you doctor the half you freeze. _________________________ Take a peek at my BLOG: http://charleen-micheles.blogspot.com/

jabber Member Registered: 02/17/05 Posts: 10032 Loc: New York State	Chatty, I haven't done anything yet. Probably this Saturday I'll doctor it up; it's supposed to be cold [weather] that day. Love chili when it's cold [outside]. And I'll probably do what you suggest and add ingredients to calm it down and expand the amount.
