Ono! Next time.
Coincidentally, I'm making chili tonight, and decided to try adding some tomato paste at the same time I add the spices, to toast them together. I haven't tried tomato paste in chili before.
It adds a more tomatoey flavor if that's what your aiming for. Usually just a good mix of spices will do you well but the paste should be fine
