• If you have extra time, you should cook onions separated from the beef – it will extra aroma and flavor.
• To add extra heat to your chili, you can use jalapenos, chipotles. These spices will take the dish up a notch.
• If you want to enhance the flavor of your chili, you can add a small amount of cinnamon, strong coffee, or dark chocolate. Dark chocolate should be added to the tomatoes. In this way, they will dissolve into the dish.
