Notes
Miso adds a little bit of unique flavor undertone to the chili. If you do not have miso in your kitchen no worries you can totally use salt and ketchup. 😃 Why add ketchup? Well miso is fermented and gives depth in flavor that normal salt cannot... If you have gourmet or delicious salt like Redmond Real Salt or salt from an exotic ocean. Go for it you can use only that salt. But we found that adding ketchup adds a little more tone to the flavor that miso would have been able to add. Try it out and comment and let us know!!
