<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">quote:</font><HR>The former Kentucky Fried Chicken has shortened its name to KFC, but the company claims the recipe has stayed the same for 40 years. According to KFC Spokesperson Jean Litterst "less than a handful of people" know their multi-million dollar recipe.

Like Coca-Cola, KFC secures its recipe in a bank vault. This one is somewhere in Louisville, Kentucky. To ensure that spice vendors don't know the formula, the secret blend of eleven herbs and spices is mixed at two different locations and then combined elsewhere with the aid of an IBM processing system. All this technology, secrecy and security for a formula that used to be mixed by KFC's founder, Colonel Harland Sanders, on the concrete floor of his own backyard porch.

Poundstone lists his version version of this well-kept secret recipe. He claims to have obtained a sample of the coating from a KFC employee, and then to have had it analyzed by a laboratory. What he found was shocking--only four ingredients: Salt, ground black pepper, flour and MSG (monosodium glutamate, a flavor enhancer).

But it wasn't just the ingredients that made the Colonel's Southern Fried Chicken so special. To speed up the cooking process, Harlan Sanders thought to use a "new-fangled device" he first saw demonstrated in the 1930's. He found that frying the chicken with a pressure cooker took half as long, while locking in moisture that keeps the chicken juicy.

Using Poundstone's list of four ingredients and a pressure cooker, Todd developed a recipe published in Top Secret Recipes that I thought tasted just like the "Finger-lickin' good" original. When I asked Ms. Litterst what she thought of the recipe, she insisted it is different from the original and that "the actual recipe does include eleven herbs and spices."

According to Litterst, "Sealed up in the cornerstone of the Colonel Sanders Technological Center in Louisville, Kentucky is a sample of the eleven herbs and spices used in the recipe." Hmm, anybody got a chisel?
