6		Garlic cloves - chopped fine
1	tablespoon	Cumin seed - whole

2	tablespoons	Worcestershire sauce
4	tablespoons	White vinegar
1	can	Pureed tomatoes - (28 oz)
1	tablespoon	Oregano
2	pounds	Dried kidney beans - soaked, cooked,

Heat a 12-quart heavy stockpot and add the oil. Saute the pork, beef, onions, garlic, cumin seeds, chili powder and bay leaves until the meat is barely browned and the onions clear. Drain the fat and discard. Add the remaining ingredients, including the beans, and bring to a simmer. Cook, covered, for 1 1/2 hours or until the beans are very tender. You may need to add water to the dish as it cooks. Now you must decide if you are to have it one, two, three, four or five way. You might even think up a sixth way! The additional condiments that you may want are cooked spaghetti, grated Cheddar cheese and chopped onions. Comments: This is certainly an interesting dish, though a bit unusual. The story goes that a young chef from Macedonia arrived in Cincinnati and opened a chili stand. He added more spices, as per his background, and Cincinnati chili was born. Note that this recipe calls for some sweet spices such as cinnamon and allspice, and cocoa. Some recipes also call for nutmeg. The method of serving is a bit unusual too. The chili is normally not made with beans. So when you order Cincinnati chili you get a bowl of meat and spices. When you order it "two way" the sauce comes on a pile of spaghetti. When you order it "three way" you get spaghetti topped with chili and Cheddar cheese. A "four way" adds chopped onions and a "five way" adds the fifth ingredient, beans. You can have great fun with this and I expect your children will think up some additional "ways" of serving this delicious dish.
