archive.louisville.com/content/winston-shelton-colonels-corporal-food-diningWhat can we extract from this: 1) What "certain amount of soft winter wheat flour" was intended? 400 Oz. of Flour (25 Lbs.) are added to the KFC 'Lug'. 400 grams is a logical scale down for 400 ounces. 2) One specific herb weighs 20 grams 3) One specific spice weighs 10 grams 4) A mystery ingredient (presumably an herb or spice) weighs 13 grams 5) 100 - 20 - 10 - 13 = 57 grams to be spread among the remaining 8 herbs and spices 6) 100 grams of H&S in a presumed 400 grams of flour = 25% H&S with respect to Flour 7) if "that would be it", does that mean Salt and MSG are two of the overall 11? Your thoughts?

I would easily be at about 55 grams (give/take a bit) of Salt to 400 grams flour. Given that only 57 grams are available, it does not seem likely that Salt is involved here. But MSG still could be.

Your thoughts? The one article I have focused most likely too much of my thoughts on. And the reason I have clung to 13g of Garlic Salt. Scaled to 1.3g for a 10g H&S only recipe (read no MSG or Additional Salt).
I could see 2.0g (10g) or 20g (100g) being one of the peppers What would represent the 1.0g(1og) or 10g(100g) ingredient? - Coriander, Sage, Ginger (may be candidates)
I wouldn't normally put a lot of faith in it but 13g is just too specific to be made up on the spot.
I think he also says he was shy 13g and only counted 10 ingredients. So if MSG or Extra Salt was in the 100g then the list of ingredients is less than mine (ours). If it was 100g plus MSG and Salt. Makes me think perhaps both black and white pepper may have been counted separately.
For my theory it could mean:
1 Black Pepper 2 White Pepper 3 Garlic Salt
8 spots left
This interview haunts me. LOL

The first major hurdle to solving Winston Shelton's 100 grams equation seems to me to be solving the "certain amount of soft winter wheat flour" that accompanies the 100 grams. How many grams of flour did Colonel Harland Sanders tell Winston Shelton to use?

How many grams of flour did Colonel Harland Sanders tell Winston Shelton to use? Absolutely. And what size of recipe would a 100g one represent? A restaurant sized batch? So this would make you a "days" worth of chicken in an average KFC location? |

The first major hurdle to solving Winston Shelton's 100 grams equation seems to me to be solving the "certain amount of soft winter wheat flour" that accompanies the 100 grams. How many grams of flour did Colonel Harland Sanders tell Winston Shelton to use? Back in that Time KFC for the Most part hard still 2 Different types of Locations One was the NON Franchised Branded KFC eg. Local locations that took KFC on as a ad on to the Menu Two was the Branded KFC Bucket in the Sky CHS stores CHS taught the locations similar but different mixing of Flour The small locations being either Location the Non franchised or franchised which did Lower amounts of Chicken and DID NOT have Cvap Machines who made most chicken FRESH TO ORDER They either mixed 5 Lbs of flour and would remix more flour fresh ( THEY DID NOT HAVE COMMERCIAL SIFTERS HAND SIFTERS)
The Franchised who did larger volume and some who had Cvap when they became available made MORE chicken and had Mechanical sifters mixed 10 LBS of flour amounts
I know everyone thinks because KEN and other say the manuals say 25LBS ( THAT WAS NEW AGE KFC CORPORATIONS MANUALS NOT CHS )
in the 1940's FLOUR was primary sold in 10 LBS Bags NOT 25Lbs ( remember many people could not Transport 25LBS bags of flour. NOT everyone had auto and the truck space was a shoe box. Yes there were many people who bought 20LBS of flour well they bough 2 Bags ( If one had BUGS in the flour and pest they hoped the other did not.
Even if the flour had been invaded by pest they sifted the flour there was NO waste.
Remember the NON KFC Branded store may or may NOT have had a commercial 4 burner stove and grille. and space for cooking was limited.
Also the Burger locations where CHS added the menu of chicken to there sales DID NOT have large kitchens and storage for mega supply's like a cafeteria or Large restaurant
A location like Kaelin's who was the 5th KFC to sign on with KFC had a Major Kitchen and seating restaurant BUT only added the FREID CHICKEN to the menu NOT the side dishes they DID NOT even add the Gravy until 1 year later to the menu. They mixed 10Lbs or 20Lbs flour in the Moring 10LBS weekdays and 20LBS weekends. They usually sold out of the chicken on a weekend.
Keep in Mind that 10Lbs of Flour mixed with seasoning only coated approximately 20 chicken back in the Day when they were 2.5 LBS chicken's
Canadian Locations had a issue with getting the 11 Spice and Herbs by Train in the winter that's why CHS started Mixing some the 11 Spices and Herbs In Calgary Alberta Canada and warehousing the extra spices shipped by Rail in a Garage where it could be shipped out from in Winter and later most of the year.
Local suppliers were used for the Flour
