Allspice?
Basil?
White Pepper?
Clove?
Etc...
What do you think is most likely to deliver the 'note' of KFC Original Recipe, where the 'note' here is primarily an expression of initial flavor impact, followed by lingering flavor impact and mouthfeel?
And for bonus points, what delivered the 'note' within 1940 KFC_OR (I.E., the real original recipe)?

I was 100% sold on Eugenol oil as the key to the note, but after cooking and eating my recipe #11 (which was over the top in abundantly delivering Eugenol) and hardly detecting a hint of the true 'note', I've become totally baffled and disillusioned, and I no longer see Eugenol as the key.
I'm now thinking the 'note' has some odd sort of sweetness about it that needs to be uncovered and explored and exploited.
What Herbs and Spices deliver sweetness without having to resort to adding sugars?
Lavender?
Nutmeg?
Cinnamon?
Star-Anise?
Etc...?

The amount of Sage being used is under valued and needs to be higher then the coriander

Remember that Oregano Mexican was also label as a Sage in the 1930 so there may NOT be a need for both Rosemary has more of a boost then the added Tarragon
You can change the Tarragon for a more aromatic spice if you don't get a note from yours. or add little Dill to your tarragon
Rosemary, Sage, Parsley, Thyme These were STAPLES of the 1930 in Butcher and Cooking and even made it to a Famous song
I have never discarded these 4 items and they were used in a MEAT SEASONING in the 1930 by Griffith

I read on a website run by a Mexican chef that actually Marjoram would be a better substitute for Mexican Oregano than Mediterranean Oregano. Maybe this is why we find Marjoram in most recipes today. Or maybe the corp made this change due to demand/availability...?
I haven't had Mexican Oregano yet. I just ordered a some. Until then I won't be able to say anything really but it is confusing. Has it been replaced by Common Sage or Oregano now. Or is it such a super herb that it covers for both? Then how do you ever get to 6 herbs? I couldn't find anything online that would support the narrative of Mexican Oregano being the standard variety in the US before Mediterranean Oregano "took over". But please correct me.

My Mediterranean Oregano is seriously pungent and bitter. Nothing like Sage.
