How To Make Vegan Chili

[RottingintheMidwest]

note to those using extra hot peppers in their chili: WEAR PLASTIC GLOVES when cutting and handling them, so you will not have to worry about "burning" your fingers.

[jammingwithmarley]

Woa it's so colorful

[LuvHealthNConception]

Let's have beers & do it .... Make the Chilli

[jeffinition]

i dig the foul language. there are plenty of other cooking shows for soccer moms.

[RottingintheMidwest]

@jeffinition

i barely noticed the so-called foul language. what was it? just one eff-bomb, right?

[stevebond727200]

You might want to consider toning down the language to make this family-friendly...I'm sure many would appreciate it. Thanks!

[solobelle0433]

Make a popcorn video

[adamc404]

cool!!!! but the beer makes it not so much gluten free btw.

[thephleblady]

Really enjoyed the video...thnaks for sharing.

[savgal1211]

[Parsalsa]

This sounds so hearty and delicious... but what can I use instead of beer because I want to make this for my family.

[hilahcooking]

@Parsalsa Just leave it out!

[Dejan187]

@hilahcooking alcohol will evaporate straight out

[KithkinWillowblades]

@Parsalsa erm you do know that the alcohol from the beer cooks out right? I promise it wont get your kids drunk.

[jasonbroaddus]

@Parsalsa the alcohol will cook out of the chili if cooked long enough and a high heat. So, cook it until it starts to bubble and you're fine.

[Seyahhsod]

@Parsalsa

Don't worry about adding the beer.

The heat cooks all the alcohol away !

[notefromself]

That looks amazing. I'm so going to try that. 

Hilah doesn't act like anyone. She doesn't need to.

[hilahcooking]

@notefromself Yay! Hope you like it! Thank you.:)

[AdIgnorantiam]

Wow. He is gorgeous!

[djmixmac]

Its PHOEBE BUFFAY!

[buNi5D]

[LBurris597]

Great video!

[hilahcooking]

@LBurris597 Thank you!

[Wivanunu]

You totally act like Phoebe from "Friends"!!!!!

[Phatticusify]

[maxwellt90]

HAHAH You guys are soooo funny!! I can't wait to make this!

[JoeHell67]

Hi,

a vegan Chili is great! Like every Chili i think it tastes even better the next day!

Did your girlfriend/boyfriend drop you? Make yourself some spicy Chili!

it warms your belly and your heart and soul! :-)

btw. german beer is brewed following the 'purity laws of 1516' (the Reinheitsgebot) it allows only water, malts, hops and yeast

I think a dark malty beer is recommended...in the chili and with it ;-)

don't mess with Texas if it comes to chili :-))

Joe from Germany

[hilahcooking]

@JoeHell67 Yes! I should have known to ask you about the beer law. We used a stout. It was goo-ood!

[JoeHell67]

@hilahcooking

Yes, i see you have a new best internet buddy....sniff..

it's OK to break my heart but it was smashed already when you jumped on it the first time..... no need to jump on it with biker boots 5 more times.... i got it, OK? :-((

It needs more to get rid of me!! I made a similar chili with Zucchini instead of 'shrooms for 'da boyz' at work and the loved it!

I call it 'chili from scratch'....

[hilahcooking]

@JoeHell67 Dearest, oldest, internet best buddy, Joe: no one could replace you. Please stop crying.

[usafireandrescue]

I love chili... it is one of my most favorite foods. Great recipe and great video! Thumbs up my friend!

[hilahcooking]

@usafireandrescue Thanks, Amy!

[joel92789jb]

I don't have a bit of vegetarian in me, let alone vegan, but I would love to try this.

[hilahcooking]

@joel92789jb I wish you could've been there!

[rylankeeper]

Karol, you should be carefull when you say "gluten free" because that beer you poured in there contains barley which is a gluten. My father has celiac disease and if he was to eat this chili thinking it was gluten free he could become very sick. Any trace of wheat, barley or rye affects him. Thanks.

[hilahcooking]

@rylankeeper You're right! Sorry, the beer was my idea. Thanks for that reminder!

[TheKenAlanShow]

Will try this winter, looks great!

[Kid03d]

your so funny :D

[TheVittleVlog]

Great conversation while cooking...lol.... Chili looks goooood!!

[hilahcooking]

@TheVittleVlog It was! Thanks, Rick!

[MiracleWithPaws]

That looked yummy! But the fish-beer-thingy sounded gross, I'm so glad I don't drink alcohol!

[hilahcooking]

@MiracleWithPaws No kidding! Good thing we know about the vegan beer options!

[MariahmR]

The chemistry between you two made me giggle =) I like this video.

[karolgajda]

@MariahmR thanks! that's because we're best friends! :)

[1kperday]

*gasp* Meatless chili... full of beans... from Texas, no less. OH, THE HUGE MANATEE!!

Jim Bowie is spinning like a top....

[hilahcooking]

@1kperday Jim Bowie can kiss my bacon-grease-free grits! (Just Kidding. I loved him in THE ALAMO.)

[kozeraag]

I love chili! And I'm so glad to see a recipe that is not con carne. :)

[danoodles]

Great video! You guys work well together! Very funny banter and a chill attitude makes for a great show. I will definitely be trying this....maybe even tonight! :Þ

[hilahcooking]

@danoodles Thanks so much! It was a ton of fun to shoot this episode! Try it out!

[k0d14k1]

I guess it's true you are what you eat. That guy is a beanstalk!

You can tell he is vegan though, donning the emaciated look. 

[karolgajda]

@k0d14k1 you said the magic word: BEANS!!!!

[kcthecook1]

That looks so yummmie. Can you add celery? Great work

[hilahcooking]

@kcthecook1 I'm not sure about celery but I bet carrots would be nice! Thanks for watching, KC!

[asphaltplanet]

@kcthecook1 I had some chili with celery recently and it was actually awesome. Just don't overcook the celery so it stays crunchy.



[DrH2OH]

marry me?

[hilahcooking]

@DrH2OH Are you a real doctor? I'll think about it...

[Jayd94h]

i dont cook or anything but i love watching you!!! aha :L

[garenosborn]

I'm not a vegan and I like my chili to have lots of meat in it usually. But this looks awesome, we're going to have to try it!

[hilahcooking]

@garenosborn Garen, you should! I was really impressed with it.

[ShadowNam275]

Well, your not a proffesional chef, Neither am I Hehahah. Don't tell my boss.

You wan't it really hot? Umm.. EEY !

I love you Hilah you are so hillarious I laugh all the time :D

[hilahcooking]

@ShadowNam275 I'm so happy to make you laugh! :)

[Fancylooks]

I hate squid ink flavour, not to say its look, awfull... and I suposse they need to kill the squids to get the ink from their ink bladder, i guess they don't ink the squids just like they do with cow's breasts!

I make a similar recipe to this, I don't mix the two kinds of beans, but it is a very nice idea, so I think yours is better cause you add a lot of flavour.

[hilahcooking]

@Fancylooks Thanks, Fancylooks! I have only ever had pasta flavored with squid ink and I didn't really notice much of anything, but the idea of it did kind of gross me out. Is it used much in Spanish cuisine?

I hope you try this recipe. We had a great time making it and then eating it. :)

[Fancylooks]

@hilahcooking It shows in the video that you really had a great time, I believe you.

In Spanish Cuisine we don't use ink squid a lot, but it is quite common to see a dish using it in the restaurants, cooked with squid rings and the ink and boiled rice. I can't eat that, even the smell is not nice for me. My mother really likes it though. Aggggh!

[hilahcooking]

@Fancylooks Hmm, sounds like an acquired taste. I imagine it would smell kind of like dirt and hormones. Man, now I have to smell it!

[iloveflavor]

Dishes with squid ink are delicious - looks scary at first but it is A-MAZ-ING!

[hilahcooking]

@iloveflavor What does the taste remind you of?

[iloveflavor]

@hilahcooking Squid Ink has a slight salty, bitter, and oily taste with little hints from the sea - I don't think I've had anything quite like it! Although it makes the dish look a bit freaky, it's not overpowering and adds a nice subtle flavor. Haha - now my mouth is watering!!!

[Drpapuffnik]

I always wondered why Vegans look dead....They all are to skinny and look sick....SORRY but it is true.

[hilahcooking]

@Drpapuffnik Ooh, no, I think vegans are sexxx-ayy!

[VideoBhoy]

your videos deserve thousands more viewers! theyre great

[hilahcooking]

@VideoBhoy I couldn't agree more! Thank you!

[chopsky]

Can spot the vegan a mile away. They all look like they've just escaped a concentrated camp. Carnivorous women tend to have more muscle mass than vegan men.

[hilahcooking]

@chopsky I used to be a professional body builder, too, so it's not really a fair comparison. ;)

[chopsky]

@hilahcooking you also eat meat, which next to a vegan, makes you look like a professional bodybuilder :)

[gilboypogi]

HILAH YOUR CLEAVAGE IS HOTTER THAN CHILI!!!!

[gilboypogi]

IS CARL GAY?????JUST ASKIN.I LOVE YOU HILAH!!!!

[karolgajda]

@gilboypogi call me ;)

[anmoose]

This looks like a GREAT recipe. I always like using fresh ingredients whenever I can, and I also always use dried beans instead of canned, because you KNOW what's in them.

Of course, as a carnivore, I see this brought to perfection by the addition of a pound of ground round. Balanced with another tablespoon of chili powder. LOL

[hilahcooking]

@anmoose I know what you mean. I totally forgot to soak my beans, though!

[fitzgeraldmw]

I'm about as far from a Vegan as possible, but that looked fantastic! I would have no problem eating that. Yum!

[hilahcooking]

@fitzgeraldmw Umm, yeah, me too, but it was SUPER AMAZING.

[torofighter]

no honey? Raw honey is absolutely wonderful for you. I'm surprised

[defect530]

i just made chili today, but mine is loaded with meat. yummy!

[Spyroyahoo]

LOL I`m shorter than you so that makes sense. XD

[svtcontour]

I think Carl was wrong (j/k). Whole beer is perfect in a Chili. I always add a while beer. Just let it slowly simmer until its all good :) Hilah rocks because she can cook, puts on a great show and has a great sense of humor. All the things needed for a great cooking show :)

[hilahcooking]

@svtcontour The beer turned out really well! Thank you!

[SEXYSTEVE1118FTW]

anybody else want to hang out with hilah?

[OccasionalVlogger]

Squid Ink I think is harvested from the squid sold in markets cleaned and gutted. They take the sac and collect the ink I can be mistaken though. I don't think it's harvested from teh live animal.

[hilahcooking]

@OccasionalVlogger Thank you! That makes a whole lot more sense than just scaring it out of them. Me and my stupid imagination. :)

[SimpleShorts]

Mmm.. I might try that.

[stooge81]

at 3:00, carl's scarin' me with those knife skills. anyway, this looks good. i'm all over it. like a cheap suit. thanks, hilah.

[hilahcooking]

@stooge81 Karol has some KILLER knife skills! Seriously.

[karolgajda]

@stooge81 haha! can you tell I'm professionally trained? :)

[MsEmwee]

chili is one of my favorite dishes...so naturally i am going to have to try this bad boy recipe out.

thank you Karol and Hilah!

[hilahcooking]

@MsEmwee You are welcome! I think you will love this recipe, too!

[diabeticdoode]

[karolgajda]

@dondonmofo99 me too, he's an asshole

[SuperMrsnowman]

THAAAAAANKKKKKKK YYYYOOOOOOUUUUU

[hilahcooking]

@SuperMrsnowman You're very, berry welcome!

[UnpluggedSRB]

Wow... This looks great! And, you are so cool, it's real fun watching and trying out some of the recipes. Thanks ;)

[hilahcooking]

@UnpluggedSRB Thank you! I hope you try it out!

[TaxEvasion]

how much research do vegans have to do to determine whether or not the food product they want to consume uses any animal products in it?

sure does look good though.

I love bacon too much to ever become a vegan or a vegetarian.

[padlocksncocoapuffs]

@TaxEvasion read the back of the package or go to peta.com and they have lists of things that are vegan

[karolgajda]

@TaxEvasion Not too much research. Especially because, for the most part, I don't eat garbage. :)

[pinkdes2ny]

Do you do some of those Rant videos?

[hilahcooking]

@pinkdes2ny I do indeed!

[Boomchakalaka07]

WOW that looks really yummy!!! Hilah you are hilarious! Love this show!!

[hilahcooking]

@Boomchakalaka07 Thank you! It was really, really yummy!

[iiRAZZERii]

vegen people are wired

[JamesBerg86]

I think you seriously have something here with your show concept. I would really like to see you get on Food Network. I have been telling my friends about your channel and website. Maybe I can help turn up more of a following.

[sewmommysew]

@JamesBerg86 i think she should to!!! that would be AWSOME

[hilahcooking]

@JamesBerg86 Thank you, James! I hope I will continue to make a show you enjoy enough to tell your friends about. Word of mouth is our best friend.

[yorisakb]

im not Vegan and i think that looks so YUMMY!
