They're ok as an optional topping. You can't put them in to cook, they turn to mush. The chilli itself though, was very good.
I do like to put the supermarket chillies in the freezer and than use one of those microplane graters to dust one into / onto food.
I've got some chocolate habeneros from a friend going to have to try a small sliver to check the heat which I'm not looking forward to and then I'll use in a chilli this weekend.
What, the kidney beans, my Mrs is the same. But she can smash a can of baked beans no problem, I don’t see any difference but she mentions taste/twxture.
I'm not keen on baked beans, but if they are on the plate I'm going to eat them, not fussed about having them with steak either. Always Heinz, wouldn't touch the other brands, no idea why and I've no idea what anyone else is serving me. I'm probably one of the very few people that would have tinned tomatoes with my fry up. Wouldn't eat any other sort of beans like broad or kidney, yuk. I'd eat loads of runner beans.
Nope, i always do it Sauges bacon and eggs in the pan first then when nearly done tip a small can of chopped tomatos in to finish it off.
