Homemade chili recipe
Posted on 4/3/24 at 3:34 pm

Fellow baw/ bawette chefs, I've followed an "award winning" recipe on you tube. It's basically a Texas "pour and dump" technique. I followed the steps, and it came out kinda salty within the 1st hour of simmering. Any thoughts on how to eliminate the salty taste? Thanks

You need to dilute it with more ingredients that don't contain salt.

Celery cuts the taste of salt. For chili I would use celery powder instead of chopped.
Onion may also help and that can be chopped.

Add more beef broth and other veggies, such as beans, peppers, onion, etc. This may thin it out though, so you will want to thicken with a slurry of masa harina and cold beer.

I use a Wick Fowlers copycat recipe (it’s on the Google). Works like a charm every time.

Cut back on the salt.

Add a pound of unseasoned ground beef. If it works, there will be plenty more good chili.

Thanks for the suggestions. Apparently the dude has not considered sodium.

throw it out and start over using half the salt in that recipe.
you cannot remove the salt no matter what you do, you just throw in more stuff and then still have to throw it out.
also, if you dont share the recipe, its pretty hard for us to recommend how to fix it when we have no idea what you are putting in it

try again, celery adds salt taste to foods

some people just love lots of salt
recipes from emerald should never be used as-is, but you add salt and pepper to your own taste

Fresh celery adds salt? Ground celery?

Try deeprig9’s recipe

Fresh celery contains 88mg of sodium per cup. That's a pretty small amount in the whole scheme of things, but celery has one of the highest concentrations of sodium in any vegetable relatively speaking.

I’ve seen a well known fishing guide/marina owner from Cocodrie put potatoes in a pastalaya he fricked up with too much seasoning before. It still gets brought up from time to time.

Thanks. I had no idea it had some natural sodium.

Too much salt has been the bane of many of cooks
My dad taught me at a young age (like 12 yo) a rule of thumb.
Always add salt LAST to any recipe.
He showed me that when you start cooking, Brown the protine and vegys without salt, or maybe a very small amount of salt. Add your other seasonings ,like garlic pepper, and hots (cayenne, ghost pepper everything else) then your broth or stock and after all this THEN see how it tastes --- because everything you add (for the most part) contains salt and it all adds up in the end --- TOO SALTY
So do yourself a favor and work backwards to be ahead of the game.
I hope this makes sense
