Tough choice.
Hormel’s master chef Kenneth Temple, a native of New Orleans, was hoping to be cooking up a bayou brand of the popular dish for Sunday’s game, but penalty flags — a lack of them, actually — got in the way. Ever the sport, he has been producing delicious batches of Dynasty Dip and City of Angels Chili Dip this week at the Super Bowl.
With Vikings star receiver Adam Thielen at his side in a small kitchen at Irwin Street Market and the renowned Jake’s Ice Cream — invent a flavor and owner Jake Rothschild will make it — Temple talked food and football.
“You know I’d like everyone to be sampling the Saints’ chili,” said Temple, who also prepared Big Easy and Kansas City versions before the conference championships. “I made gumbo and chili and it was all absolutely gone during the (Rams-Saints) game. But I wasn’t eating anything after that game. Maybe had a couple shots of whiskey.”
So it’s two distinctly different chilis for the Super Bowl, as distinct as the areas the teams represent.
