Leila wasn't wrong; "The most common account is that when people on fishing trips would begin to cook their catch their hound dogs would wail and bay in expectation. The cooks would fry bits of dough and toss them to the dogs to hush them."- serggroup

[@godaistudios]

It's a popular story, but it's fiction more than anything else. I'd suggest checking the Serious Eats article written by Robert Moss where he delves into the fiction behind the myths. The history behind the treat is older, and the term "hush puppy" can be traced to at least some time in the 1700's in England in dealing with smuggling. "As far back as the 18th century, the phrase was used as a term for silencing someone or covering something up. An 1738 account describes crooked British officials who, when ordered to board and search a vessel suspected of smuggling, "played the Game of Hush-Puppy," delaying several hours to listen to music in the captain's cabin before conducting their search, by which point the crew had hidden the contraband beneath the ship's ballast." The term was even applied to different types of foods (gravy or pot liquor) before it was connected to fried corn balls. And the fried corn balls had other names. Red horse bread, wampus, red devils and three finger bread. Given the history of how well the food was regarded for human consumption, it's unlikely it was ever fed to dogs in the first place, and it certainly isn't the origin of the name. Unfortunately, the problem with so many urban myths is that they get repeated as fact and tend to stick, no matter how incorrect.

[@Rmasyal]

Actually it started with slaves doing that to quiet the dogs when they were running to freedom and everyone else just caught on to it

[@godaistudios]

@@Rmasyal The food (and the saying) are older than any connection to that story Serious Eats covered the topic. The connection to slaves is more myth than fact and is one of those things has been repeated so often that everybody "knows" is true but actually is wrong. It's like the idea that it takes seven years for gum to digest in your stomach or that you can see the Great Wall of China from space. Those things aren't true either, but because people think they are and repeat it, people continue to believe them.

[@mbanerjee5889]

Prep time/cook time is never the issue! As someone cooks nearly everyday, cooking is easy. It's cleaning that will consume most of your time. Not to mention all the extra gadgets you need for certain foods: grill, deep fryer, immersion blender, etc. No one eats fast food purely for the taste, you eat it because it's convenient.

[@Kokujou5]

i think the biggest problem people will be facing with the biscuits is the mess that it creates. you need to clean: the mixer, the entire work sourface the rolling pin, the grater (for the cheese) and that per se probably also takes 30 minutes again... and we all know that working with flour can get out of hand very easily, so probably you also need to clean yourself and the rest of the kitchen 😆

[@peasndough]

Nahh you can freeze the butter grate both butter and cheese...mix on the table by making a well. The mess, scrape everything in the bin afterwards done

[@jerfsjourneys]

​@peasndough this is exactly what I do. I use his methods from a previous video and I'll try it with this recipe

[@Kokujou5]

@@peasndough good idea actually. 🤔 but somehow it still ends up messy, because the flour flies in every crevice of my kitchen or because the dough is so flaky stuff drops on the ground and then i need to clean the ground... those are usually problems whenever i use any kind of batter, even when deep frying, i'm already re-using the same surface for flour and panko (for katsu-style). but yet it always gets out of hand... 😆 i'm still doing it though.... and then i'm too tired from cooking so i wait until 3-4-5-6-7 days until i can't stand it anymore

I think the big secret for KFC is chicken flavored bouillon. We know they add msg in addition to whatever the original recipe to, but chicken bouillon has msg as one of the ingredients. If you want a secret ingredient, something that makes chicken taste more like chicken would be harder to detect than most other ingredients. Very few people will be curious as to why the chicken tastes so much like chicken.

[@cpmc5400]

Lots of white pepper too.

[@RisenThe]

Lots of "secrets" to recipes are chicken concentrate, as I call it. It just combines really well with all other types of meat. I buy the jars of the paste and keep it in the freezer. When I make chili, I'll add 2 tbsp or so.

There's an entire side art to fast food because most of it is somewhat pre-made and may have to sit in a warmer or in packaging for periods of time. For example , steam is the enemy of fried foods . If the container isn't vented it gets soggy . Burger toppings like lettuce and tomatoes gets gross and soggy too. Some places add extra sugar to their bread and buns so the condiments don't soak into the pretty . Sometimes thats even an accidental enhancement Nothing better than a roasted chicken that has sat in a warmer for half a day and reincorporated all that fat . Great series, always enjoy them!

[@saifchefman]

I think the Mac and Cheese scores perfectly exemplifies why it's so difficult to make "the best mac and cheese" - people's preferences differ so much with regards to it. Some people prefer roux based sauces which, imo, leads to it being a little too thick and grainy from the flour, whereas others prefer a thinner cheese sauce.

[@tanikokishimoto1604]

And some of us prefer a skillet Mac and cheese, perhaps with broccoli and mushrooms in it.

[@tanikokishimoto1604]

Best yet... Combine in 2 or 3 cheeses, and avoid both roux and thin gooey cheese sauce... Aim for at least a little cheese pull.

[@djoscartj]

@@tanikokishimoto1604 After looking at many recipes, I like the ones where you just use a can of evaporated milk to cook the pasta in + butter + a little corn starch + whatever 2-3 cheeses you like, and salt to taste

You're being too religious about your recipes. If your recipe says "chicken", you can throw in fish, pork, tofu, or pretty much any mild meat. If it says "cinnamon", you can throw in cloves, allspice, cardamon, nutmeg, or whatever other holiday spice; for almost any ingredient, there's probably some substitute in your kitchen. You just need to start working to figure out the families of ingredients.

I don't know if its just because I live in a small town, but the time it takes to get the KFC bucket could literally be the same time as it takes to cook it. Our KFC almost never has something ready to go, unless you are first in line during the lunch rush. If you go in the middle of the day its easily a 15 to 20 minute wait for them to get the food ready so when you factor in the drive there and back as well as the wait time you're shaving off about 15ish minutes.

@@jasons.7506 I'm 41 yrs old and when I was maybe 10 or so it was something my grandmother told me or anytime she'd make them. She was from Louisiana and East Texas. Recently in the last couple of years I saw articles popping up saying the same thing, and was like "oh no shit? She wasn't spinning tales!"
