Wait, don’t answer that. Yes you have. I know you have because I have and I want to assume that you are all standing with me in solidarity in what was once a fear – maybe even a phobia – of cooking with chipotle chili peppers in adobo sauce. I’ve been on a major spicy kick lately, first with pumpkin and black bean enchiladas and later with white bean and apple chili that I am almost certain I over-seasoned with medium hot chili powder that was in no way medium.
