Does anyone know a close recipe for KFC original recipe coating?

This is better than KFC's...

8 cups flour

2 tbsp onion salt or powder

2 tbsp white pepper

2 tbsp celery salt

2 poutry seasoning

2 1/4 tbsp salt

Mix well, and keep unused prtion in an airtight container.

To fry. Dip chicken in very cold water, then flour, then water and flour. Drop into 350 degree oil for exactly 15 minutes.

If you are doing a large amount sift the flour after about every 5 or 6 pieces. Adding new flour as needed. If you don't sift the flour it will clump and will end up in hard bits that will hurt your teeth.

sounds more to me like POPEYE'S FRIED CHICKEN

Cake Mix

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

-

3 cups Self-rising flour

1 cup Cornstarch

3 tablespoons Seasoned salt

2 tablespoons Paprika

1 teaspoon Baking soda

1 package Italian Salad Dressing Mix -- Powder

1 package Onion Soup Mix -- (1 1/2 ounces)

1 package spaghetti sauce mix -- (1/2 ounce)

3 tablespoons Sugar

3 cups Corn flakes -- crush slightly

2 Eggs -- well beaten

1/4 cup Cold water

4 pounds Chicken -- cut up

Combine first 9 ingredients in large bowl. Put the cornflakes into another

bowl. Put eggs and water in a 3rd bowl. Put enough corn oil into a heavy

roomy skillet to fill it 1" deep. Get it HOT! Grease a 9x12x2 baking pan.

Set it aside. Preheat oven to 350~. Dip chicken pieces 1 piece at a time as

follows: 1-Into dry coating mix. 2-Into egg and water mix. 3-Into corn

flakes. 4-Briskly but briefly back into dry mix. 5-Drop into hot oil,

skin-side-down and brown 3 to 4 minutes on medium high. Turn and brown

other side of each piece. Don't crowd pieces during frying. Place in

prepared pan in single layer, skin-side-up. Seal in foil, on 3 sides only,

leaving 1 side loose for steam to escape. Bake at 350~ for 35-40 minutes

removing foil then to test tenderness of chicken. Allow to bake uncovered

5 minutes longer to crisp the coating. Serves 4. Leftovers refrigerate

well up to 4 days. Do not freeze these leftovers. Leftover coating mix

(1st 9 ingredients) can be stored at room temp in covered container up to

2 months.

The coating is believed to be flour, salt, pepper, and MSG. Dip the chicken in an egg and milk wash, toss in the coating, and then deep-fry in a pressure cooker at about 400F/205C.
