What if Mr. Krabs tried to steal planktons secret recipe?

[@Toxic_Stall]

I work at KFC and, while I don’t know the secret recipe, I can say that the cooking method was wrong. We use pressure deep fryers at 345 Fahrenheit for 16 minutes. No buttermilk, and the ratio should be about 1/3 herbs and spices to 2/3 flour. Also, I can say for sure that there isn’t paprika. The distinct red color just isn’t in any of the mixes. (Also, we do use MSG, it’s one of the few things on the ingredients list) hope this helps!

[@shahzad1433]

What about chicken marination, if not butter milk then?

[@i_am_the_eggman]

​@@shahzad1433they marinate using a marinating powder which we find at the back stock. Then, we use ice and marinate. To cook that, we double-dredge the chicken, apparently by squeezing the air out. The flour contains a mix of milk and egg powder, a spice mix (which has black pepper for sure) and salt. Then, we fry them in a pressure cooker for about 10 minutes. However, I find cooking chicken in a regular fryer for about 10 minutes makes them juicier.

When Colonel Sanders sold KFC in the US, he continued to sell KFC chicken in Canada under a different franchise. There is a man that worked with him that he gave the recipe to that are the spices he used in Canada. That man now has a company in Europe that makes the seasoning in bulk and sells it to KFC in Europe. A guy investigating the seasonings was given the ingredients from that man , but not the measurements. The man that makes it in bulk is not sure if this is the same as the recipe they use in the USA. But this is apparently the ingredients in the seasoning in Europe. They use pressurized deep fryers. salt regular pepper coarsley ground pepper and finely ground white pepper allspice garlic powder summer savory coriander seed ginger msg thyme sage marjoram

[@h_rico96]

I worked at KFC as a fry cook when I was younger and we were never told anything about what’s in the seasoning. We were to take a bag of flour that literally just said “flour” and mix it with a bag that literally said “salt” and as someone who cooked since I was a kid I would taste the salt and flour and would try my best to call it out and this is what I came up with; So the color of the salt alone gives off an Adoboish yellow color. I remember getting notes of oregano, white pepper, salt, black pepper, and the MSG is a no brainer. Other than that I will also say that KFC’s level of freshness is probably one of the best out of any restaurant I’ve ever worked at. The chicken is always delivered super fresh and we were expected to constantly change the chicken out of the warmer every hour and 30 mins. Also expected to clean our pressure fryers out every day if not every two days depending on how busy we got. That also played a part in the taste of the chicken.

[@shlankbank]

Between the allergens lists, our taste buds and smell receptors being pretty good at telling culinary stuff apart and trained animals covering what we can't, no recipe is immune to being cracked as far as basic ingredients are concerned. However, not only are plants ridiculously plenty in variety, but some of their breeds are proprietary. Meaning that you can't ask for seeds / sapplings (or similars), and getting your hands on one of these without asking and proceeding to plant, harvest and sell them or whatever you make out of them will most likely get you a heavy lawsuit. To top that off, the processes behind turning these plants into spices are all industrial secrets too, and other than telling whatever chemicals may end up in the final product, the owners of these secrets have no further obligations. So while our chemical receptors can tell us the difference between things made in way X and way Y, they aren't retro-engineering machines to tell us how it all arrived there. And since our allergen receptors don't care about such details, FDA won't give a damn either. Not to say that these so-called "secrets" means that they are the best all around to everyone. When things are way too good, we simply cannot evaluate which one is the best. This is specially important when we consider popular, mass-produced food items, such as fast-food spice blends and soft drinks. They aren't made to be deeply appreciated by "sommeliers", but simply appeal to a large amount of people; So not only are people unlikely to judge these items objective, they also have no reason to attempt it. But... While we cannot usually can (or want) to tell which one is better, we certainly can get "attached" to certain flavors, even more so when they bring us nostalgia or, quite the contrary, gives us something new to appreciate. Thus, keeping your exact recipe a secret is less of a way to avoid people attempting to make similar or "better" stuff, and more of a measure to keep a strong grip over said item's identity and all the popular culture that was built over them.

The KFC (Kentucky Fried Chicken) formula, famously known as Colonel Sanders' Original Recipe, is a closely guarded secret. The recipe is said to include 11 herbs and spices. While the exact formula is proprietary, a leaked list of the alleged ingredients has circulated for years. Here is a widely speculated version of the KFC seasoning mix: ### Alleged KFC Original Recipe Ingredients: - 2/3 tablespoon salt - 1/2 tablespoon thyme - 1/2 tablespoon basil - 1/3 tablespoon oregano - 1 tablespoon celery salt - 1 tablespoon black pepper - 1 tablespoon dried mustard - 4 tablespoons paprika - 2 tablespoons garlic salt - 1 tablespoon ground ginger - 3 tablespoons white pepper These ingredients are typically mixed with flour to coat the chicken before frying. However, the exact proportions and preparation methods are not officially confirmed by KFC. The company maintains that the recipe remains a trade secret. 🎉🎉🎉

Hey Nick, hope this helps: Right after senior year of highschool my mom passed away. She was the main provider for my family, leaving me, my older sister (who worked as a paid intern at an IT company), my younger brother (who didnt work at all cuz he was 13), and my grandmother to have to make up for her role. I decided to, out of necessity, work at the nearby KFC/Taco Bell which was in a shopping plaza pretty close to my house. I wasnt sure if they would hire me or not, seeing as I was still 17 years old, but the recruiting manager gave me a break and was really nice throughout. I started working there 6 days a week, 8 hour shifts, every week for the entire summer before I had to leave for college just to raise money for the house. At first, I was just a kitchen aid (someone who doesn't prepare any of the actual food, but instead is responsible for smaller tasks such as packaging, putting lids on cups and bowls, making sure every order matched the ticket, replacing sauce dispensers, cleaning the drink machine and routinely replacing the concentrate bladders, cleaning the deep frier trays, stocking the utensils, wiping down the counters, and of course; sweeping the floors). I would also manage drive through, mobile pickup, and phone orders. Basically, my job was to make the restaurant specialists' job as easy as possible. Eventually, however, my manager saw how consistent a worker I was and how thorough I was in everything that I was tasked to do that she promoted me to restaurant specialist a little after I turned 18. There, I was given a pamphlet of all of the proper food preparation protocol--how to make sure item sizes are always consistent so as not to increase costs, how to properly lay chicken into the friers to avoid splash or uneven cooking, how to maintain oil temperature, how to store some of the foods with longer shelf lives that we could sell the next day--quite literally each and every minute, negligible thing. This pamphlet also, naturally, included the recipes in a box on the top right corner for us to know for situations akin to the exact ones you portrayed in your video; if someone has an allergy or other type of food restriction. The section broke the recipes down to a simple foot soldier level--that is, what we ourselves had to do in the store such as coating the chicken, shaking it off, frying it, etc.--as well as the components already completed prior from the factory production side of things just for us to be in the know-how. In this little subsection, the pamphlet laid out the proportions and, you betcha, the NAMES of the exact herbs and spice compounds that were preblend into the coating we would get shipped weekly from our distribution center. And because of that, because of the pamphlet which I kept and is in front of me today, I can happily say that Colonel Sanders' original 12 spices and herbs are *gunshot*

It's a very good idea if people get to setup some stuffs aside for themselves that could be bringing them money apart from there businesses

wouldnt it be easier to take a piece of it and bring it to a scientist so they could analyze it and so?

[@antonhuman8446]

Gaschromatographing some product. Is a darned good idea! Many other ingredients in the oil will be identified. And antibiotics and and in the meat. But. Certainly also the ingredients in the seasoning. (Moreover. Will a teaspoonful of the herb mix can eliminate a huge amount of unnecessary ans ancillary porholes to success..... Then the ratios must be determined. But at least the ingredients will be known. Look for the simple answers! For here. And now. You made a brilliant call. Very well done!

[@nehroranay6631]

You should’ve fried it in a pressure cooker!!! Just like how they do it 😄

You have to do a blind taste test to determine if you actually 'stole the recipe' we can't just take your word for it Nick 🤣

[@2azizjon]

I feel like Nick almost had the recipe in his hand and everyone would be crowding asking to give it to them Good try though!

[@2azizjon]

I think that if he has a little more msg he would have gotten it

[@ananyobrataroy6755]

Most interesting detective adventure for a food recipe For this , giving a like to this video is 👌🏽👌🏽

[@williecunningham3725]

That looks really good for you not to have used a pressure fryer!!!!😄😋😋😋🍽🍴🍽🥄

[@Redforsberg]

I work there and i would say to get the most accurate chicken would be to use water not buttermilk and double bread it for extra crispy, add msg and definitly pepper.

I worked at KFC on tje 90's and the packets used listed 14 items in the spice mix packet. I can't recall all of them but one was msg and another was some numbers. It was corn starch as well as plain flower and I don't recall butter milk etc. Just wet chicken tossed through the entire breading mix.

[@dillonwright13]

At the state the world is in right now, I’m surprised a giant swarm of people haven’t already infiltrated the places to get the recipe by any means they think is necessary.
