00:00I just discovered my new favorite fall recipe, and it's called, wait for it, hot pants chili.
00:05So back in 1974, Allegheny Johnny Schofield won the world championship chili cook-off with her
00:10hot pants chili recipe. Her hot pants chili turned heads thanks to its surprising ingredients. The
00:15first one is mole paste. It's a concentrated form of mole, a slow simmered Mexican mother sauce made
00:20from dried chilies, spices, nuts, fruit, and even chocolate. Now it took its name from the short
00:25shorts she was wearing when she won. How funny is that? The second ingredient is masa flour, which is
00:30used to make tortillas. You whisk it with a little bit of water and then add it to the chili to help
00:34thicken it. Let's see if hot pants lives up to its name. You can really taste that mole paste.
00:39That's fantastic. Okay, I gotta stop eating this or I won't fit into my hot pants.
