Radical KFC Original Recipe Thought(s) For The Day

I would tend to agree with you except for 1 or 2 Point, from CHS HIMSELF


I know you take Certain seasoning from sausage certain seasoning from stuffing, AND YOU COULD TAKE COMBINATIONS of some of those seasoning and you could get another good seasoning and that’s where I developed my chicken recipe.

You used Spices that compliment each other, and enhance the chicken.

The words CHS clearly indicated combination's.
Plus when you use Spices which compliment each other that again indicated Combinations.

Now if you Paired Combinations which compliment each other your Only worrying about 5 pair's, WHITE PEPPER is a STAND ALONE ITEM it Don't Play Nice with others Due to the Sharpness - BUT Can enhance Sausage with the quality, and when required in Heavy pepper Dishes adds the PEPPER ENHANCER.

Salt, Pepper

White Pepper

Ketchup, Mustard
Nutmeg, Mace
Sage, Savory
Parsley, Thyme
Oregano, Rosemary

Marinade:

Garlic, Onion
Dill, Lemon

ONLY MY VIEW?

I like the comment Silver brings to the table BUT think that Pairing items and working them in individual stages can work.

as for any type of Number sequence for a Recipe. Many Butchers use the putting spice or herbs in a recipe in a smallest to largest volume or reverse Largest to Smallest volume. Just for easy, They would also make piles of each item if they got interrupted they could look and count the items in a clockwise rotation and know where they left off

1,2,3 sequence only made it easier when there were Larger amounts of ingredient's and made forgetting less likely.

The Todd Wilbur CMT was obviously Dramatized for T.V. production.

The Only real thing is Back in the 1930's Larger Peppercorns were More common as they Allowed Growing times to Mature the Peppercorns and ALL hand picking took longer to Harvest the Crops, so larger Peppercorns were a Everyday Item. In the Current Era Mass Production and High efficient Growing Crops have changed the
Way it's produced.

It was NO secret that Black Pepper was use BUT many people did not have a Clue what Tellicherry Peppercorns were.

Just use a Great Quality peppercorn and it helps

My radical thought for the day (inspired by Deep Taste ) is that:

After getting the salt, pepper, and MSG additions critically honed in it is likely that only a couple to (perhaps) a few additional ingredients working in true harmony are required, and the rest beyond this, summing to 11, are there merely for the ride, and as a deception, as these latter ingredients are either fully expendable or fully replaceable, and they are present at levels that are not perhaps even detectable via the senses of smell and taste.
