So, it turns out there is a reason why "food photography" is an actual thing. Soup is really hard to photograph! You'll just have to trust me that this looks AMAZING. A couple of weeks ago I was visiting my Auntie DeAnn in Missouri and she had a big pot of this Chili Blanco made. I pretty much wanted to eat it for every meal the entire time I was there. SOOO good. She gave me the recipe (from an Atkins cookbook) which is basically ground pork, canellini beans, onions, and jalapenos. I used one special, super spicy jalapeno that my brother grew in his garden in Nevada. There must have been something special in the dirt out there because these things were HOT. My chili didn't turn out nearly as good as my aunt's, but so it goes. Tonight is the first time they are calling for sub-freezing temps here in Chicago, and also a chance of flurries. Not a bad night to be having a bowl of this.
