PRESSURE-COOKER FIVE-BEAN CHILI



Pressure-Cooker Five-Bean Chili image

A hearty bowl of chili always reminds me of my mom's cooking. While I love this classic recipe, I wanted a faster way to cook the dried beans so I decided to make it in my pressure cooker. Now we get to enjoy the same from-scratch recipe, but in a fraction of the time. -Courtney Stultz, Weir, Kansas

Tips:

  • Soak the beans overnight: Soaking the beans overnight helps to soften them and reduce cooking time. It is important to drain and rinse them before cooking.
  • Use a variety of beans: Using a variety of beans in your chili will give it a more complex flavor and texture. Some good options include black beans, kidney beans, pinto beans, and Great Northern beans.
  • Sauté the vegetables: Sautéing the vegetables before adding them to the chili helps to bring out their flavor and sweetness. You can sauté them in a little bit of oil or butter.
  • Use a flavorful broth: The broth you use in your chili is important because it will add flavor to the dish. You can use a vegetable broth, chicken broth, or beef broth. If you are using a canned broth, be sure to dilute it with water.
  • Add spices and seasonings: Spices and seasonings are essential for giving chili its signature flavor. Some common spices and seasonings used in chili include chili powder, cumin, paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder.
  • Simmer the chili for at least 30 minutes: Simmering the chili for at least 30 minutes allows the flavors to meld together and develop. You can simmer it for longer if you want a more complex flavor.
  • Serve with your favorite toppings: Chili is often served with toppings such as shredded cheese, sour cream, avocado, and chopped cilantro. You can also serve it with cornbread or crackers.
