If you accidentally add too much cinnamon to your chili (some shakers just dump right out on you) here's what you can do to rescue your recipe:

  • First, if you haven't mixed in the cinnamon yet, gently spoon out any clumps.
  • Now, start by adding balsamic vinegar -- up to a tablespoon per quart of chili. The acidity will counteract the cinnamon nicely.
  • If that's not enough, add up to a tablespoon of lime juice -- you may need to repeat these steps depending how much cinnamon there is.
  • Add some water and tomato paste to further balance out the flavors; you will probably need more chili powder and other seasoning to taste.
  • Rejoice! Your chili's flavor has gone from overpowering to wonderful!

How is cinnamon prepared after you get it from the tree?

After the tree is cut down you have to wait a year, until you see little shoots, within these shoots is soft inner bark, which is then dried and voila you have cinnamon! The reason cinnamon is curled is because when the bark dries it rolls itself up into what we know as cinnamon sticks, if you want powder cinnamon it's just the grinding of cinnamon sticks. Cinnamon was originally grown and is still most commonly grown in Sri Lanka.
