Mix in the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil along with the tomato paste, chili powder, chipotle powder, coriander, cumin, cayenne and garlic. Cook to toast the spices and tomato paste, 1 to 2 minutes. Then add the vegetable broth, tomatoes, corn, black beans, garbanzo beans, kidney beans, pinto beans, Worcestershire and 1 tablespoon salt. Bring to a simmer and cook for 1 hour, stirring occasionally.

Tips:
- Soaking the beans overnight: This helps to reduce the cooking time and makes the beans more digestible. If you don't have time to soak the beans overnight, you can quick-soak them by boiling them for 1 minute and then letting them sit for 1 hour.
- Using a variety of beans: This gives the chili a more complex flavor and texture. You can use any type of beans you like, but some good options include black beans, kidney beans, pinto beans, and navy beans.
- Sautéing the vegetables before adding them to the chili: This helps to caramelize the vegetables and bring out their flavor. You can sauté the vegetables in a little bit of oil or butter, or you can use a nonstick skillet.
- Seasoning the chili to taste: This is important to make sure that the chili has the right amount of flavor. You can add salt, pepper, cumin, chili powder, and any other spices that you like.
- Letting the chili simmer for a long time: This helps to develop the flavor of the chili and make it more tender. You can simmer the chili for anywhere from 1 to 4 hours, depending on how much time you have.
- Serving the chili with your favorite toppings: This can include things like sour cream, cheese, avocado, and tortilla chips. You can also serve the chili over rice or cornbread.
Conclusion:
Sarah's award-winning vegetarian 4-bean chili is a delicious and hearty dish that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own dietary needs and preferences. Whether you are a vegetarian or not, you are sure to enjoy this chili.
