The Gravy used to be made fresh with the Cracklings. Now it comes in a pouch and all you have to do is add water. Thank god for modified starch products.

KFC Gravy

1 1/2 tablespoons shortening, melted

3 tablespoons of Original Breading Flour

2 tablespoons all purpose flour

1 can Campbell’s Condensed Chicken Stock

1 can water

First we are going to make a roux with the melted shortening and 1 1/2 tablespoon of breading flour. Cook this over low heat for 10 to 15 minutes or until the roux browns in color to resemble a nice milk chocolate color. Once the mixture turns brown remove it from the heat and add the remaining flour and slowly add the liquid(s) to incorporate it so no lumps. Bring the mixture to a boil and boil for 2 minutes reduce the heat and allow the mixture to thicken which would take about 3 to 5 minutes. That is just the flour that you use to bread the chicken with. The mashed potatoes are served and made by mix. It comes in a bag just add water and butter. Many people just come to KFC to get these potatoes and gravy.

KFC Mashed Potatoes

2 1/2 cups Idaho Potato Flakes

1 stick Margarine

2 tablespoons Butter

2 1/2 cups Hot Water

3/4 cup Milk

1 teaspoon salt

Heat water add butter and margarine till melted. Add the salt and cook for 2 minutes. Add the flakes and mix till it looks like regular potatoes. Add milk to proper consistency. Serve with gravy. Serves 6.Before you cook the chicken it has to be marinated. The original way that the Colonel used to produce his chicken was to marinate it. The following Marinate recipe is still used today at KFC for the Crispy Strips which are marinated daily in 40 to 80 lbs at a time, however the amount of this marinade is only good for about 15 lbs of chicken.

The Kentucky Fried Chicken Marinate

2 tablespoons Potassium

2 tablespoons Kosher Salt

4 tablespoons MSG

1/8 teaspoon Garlic Powder

1/3 cup Bottled Chicken Concentrate

5 cups water

Mix all of the above and soak the chicken in the above marinate for 24 hours under refrigeration. The Original Recipe is not packaged in three different places. The way it is cooked and the process makes it taste like it has eleven herbs and spices when in reality there is not. The way it is done in the restaurant is using dried eggs and milk in the flour along with a box of breading salt and the seasoning bag and a bag of breading flour.
