Question Is there a way to correct chili that is seasoned too hot? I made it mostly the same as always, but used a different brand of chili beans seasoned hot. Don't know if that did it.
Please help.
Answer Unfortunately the only way that I know of to tame that pesky capsicum is to add sugar. this will undoubtedly change the whole dynamic if your dish. The only other thing that I can recommend would be to simply double the recipe using a milder or unseasoned beans and combine the two batches. Theoretically this will reduce the heat in the dish by about 50%.
Without actually being able to taste for proper seasoning or reviewing the recipe, that is about the best I can do for you.
