You can't really compost in a New York apartment. But there's a great alternative use for throw-away vegetable trimmings. Instead of a compost can, put them in the freezer. Then convert them to fragrant, flavorful vegetable stock. Compost Stock. Maybe you want to call it something else.

Big, mouth-filling flavor. Not too tart or sweet. Amazingly light but luxurious and rich. Your first bite seems completely familiar and completely new. Part airy, moist cake. Part silky light pudding.

Serious, real-deal chili. Deep, broad and complex flavors. There's much more going on here than just heat. With or without carne, you just need great chile powder to make a great chili when National Chili Day meets a Way-Too-Chilly day.
