Cincinnati Chili

Bolognese-Style chili with Greek spices

Recipe is at Serious Eats.

I converted the spices to weight measurements to make it easier. Measuring all those spice by volume uses a lot of spoons and is time-consuming. There are a lot of ingredients in this recipe, but it is easy to make.
