I questioned the T too...that’s an awful lot of salt and herbs and spices for 2 cups of flour...

The tricky bit was never the seasoning. The tricky bit always was — and remains — KFC’s pressurized deep fat fryer.

I do a LOT of cooking, and I can say without a doubt that the proportions listed are NOT correct for only 2 cups of flour. If the amounts were teaspoons, it would work, but NOT tablespoons.

Now, if someone made a spice MIX using this recipe, Tablespoons and all, the question would then be, how much of the spice mix does one use for every 2 cups of flour? I’d say..maybe 2 tablespoons off the top of my head.

Most of the ingredients were pretty easy to figure out, and the recipe differs from my own by only a couple of ingredients in addition to the proportions.

I’ll try the ginger and mustard when I make dinner tonight.

One other ingredient I use which isn’t listed is either romano or parmesan cheese..abt. 1 tablespoon per 2 cups of flour.

One way you can know that the amounts listed in the recipe is wrong is to add up exactly how much salt it contains. I LIKE salt, but there are roughly 4 TABLESPOONS of salt for only 2 cups of flour!

Now, if the recipe called for garlic POWDER or ground celery SEED it might make a little more sense, but you wouldn’t use a full tablespoon of ground celery seed for 2 cups of flour either.

So ya, there’s definitely something amiss with this recipe. I wonder how well it would work with say...a half gallon of flour?

I still think someone threw the spices together and then used a couple of tablespoons of the spices for 2 cups of flour...for convenience sake.
