While it wont take away the liquid, it will add more hearty ingredients making for a heartier stew that everyone will love. When thickening with flour, sprinkle a tablespoon over the top of your chili. Stir in well and add a tablespoon at a time until desired thickness. Cornstarch is another great way to thicken extra liquid. Dilute 2 tablespoons of cornstarch in cold water. Pour small amounts of the diluted mixture into the chili until the desired thickness. If you pour cornstarch into the warm liquid, without diluting in cold water, it won't spread evenly and will clump together. Cornmeal thickens up a watery chili well. Be prepared to have a grittier texture and a slight change in taste if using this method. If you like putting cornbread in chili, this method is for you! Sprinkle in a tablespoon at a time to avoid over thickening. Arrowroot, from the arrowroot plant is a great thickener. A little goes a long way. Mix 1 teaspoon of arrowroot with 1 teaspoon of cold water. Mix into the chili and continue to simmer your chili. It will thicken as the chili cooks. Good news, arrowroot is flavorless and won't alter the taste of your chili!
