📝 Preparation Steps
1
Heat 2 Tbsp. extra-virgin olive oil in a medium Dutch oven or other heavy pot over medium-high. Add 4 garlic cloves, finely chopped, 1 medium white onion, finely chopped, and ½ tsp. Diamond Crystal or ¼ tsp. Morton kosher salt; cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is slightly softened and lightly browned around the edges, about ⏱️ 5 minutes. Add 2 Tbsp. unsalted butter, 2 tsp. chipotle chile powder, 1½ tsp. ground cumin, ½ tsp. ground coriander, and a pinch of cayenne pepper; season with freshly ground black pepper. Cook, stirring often, until butter is melted and spices are fragrant, 1–⏱️ 2 minutes. Add 2 Tbsp. double-concentrated tomato paste and 1 Tbsp. miso and cook, stirring often, until combined and tomato paste is slightly darkened in color, 1–⏱️ 2 minutes.

Pour in 1 Tbsp. balsamic vinegar and ½ cup water, scraping up any browned bits stuck to bottom of pot, and cook until reduced and a paste forms, about ⏱️ 1 minute.

Morton kosher salt; cook, stirring and breaking up meat with a wooden spoon, until softened, and cooked through, about ⏱️ 3 minutes.

Pour in 2 cups water, increase heat to high, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat so chili is at a simmer and cover pot. Cook until stewy and slightly thickened, 13–⏱️ 15 minutes.

Add 1 Tbsp. all-purpose flour and stir until incorporated, then increase heat to medium-high. Cook, stirring and mashing beef with a potato masher, until chili is thickened and beef is a fine consistency, 8–⏱️ 10 minutes. (Chili will continue to thicken as it cools.)
