In reply to Wendy Klik. The name is deceiving as it's not made with ghost peppers. Was more of a play on words with it being near Halloween and a white chili, so it's a ghost haha.

I’ve never thought to bake the cornbread on top of the chili, but I love the idea! And I am definitely in the mood for some white chili today.

I am loving that cornbread crust….this sounds absolutely delicious to me but my husband is spice sensitive so I will have to tone it down quite a bit.

In reply to Susan. Glad it was a keeper despite the hiccoughs! It's been awhile since I made it but I definitely don't remember the cornbread batter sinking. Guess I'll have to remake it again soon ;-)

Made this for dinner tonight and it was delicious, despite the fact that I forgot to add the cilantro at the right time and that I forgot all about the crema. The cornbread part was somewhat of a disaster. I used a box mix, which came out way too liquid, so I added more cornmeal, and even then it did not cook completely in 25 minutes. Not sure what the problem was; perhaps I need less liquid in the chili? The batter just mostly sank into the chili. Next time I’ll do scratch corn bread, and will also cut the cayenne/black pepper combo, and go for plain jack cheese. I’m afraid that our old stomachs have become wimpy… But this recipe is definitely a keeper. I’m glad to finally find a recipe I like that does not have chili powder or tomatoes in it.

I love white chili, and I’m anxious to try this one with hominy in it. I love soups with hominy like posole. I’m going to try and make this one day this week.

In reply to amy @ fearless homemaker. This was actually my first experience with hominy! I had no idea what it way before, but assumed it was some kind of corn.
