Had home made KFC tonight based on the leaked recipe
Broke down a whole chicken and pre-brined overnight. There was enough dredging flour for 3kg of chicken I reckon so I was disappointed at the waste. The right sided line of pieces was batch one, oil was too hot
Got the temperature (350F) much better on the later batches
Tasted pretty damn close to the real thing

@canefan the stuff in KFC is cooked in a pressure cooker, IIRC about 180c for 14 mins...all the breading that fell to the bottom was then used for the gravy, I think they stopped doing that years ago though.

Thought the leftover sludge looked familiar!

@Catogrande Yeah I love seasoning any large piece of lamb or beef with anchovy. My wife rails at the suggestion, but the amount of times she's eaten anchovy-seasoned meat and not known it....
There's a decent joke there

It's the Japanese umami thing. When you stab holes and stuff a lamb leg with garlic and a piece of anchovy, every bite you have that contains stuffing is so much better than the rest

@Hooroo Bacon AND chilli. You are just fucking crazy!
So O.K. Chilli boy (yeah sorry, missing the rugby). Some help please.
A mate has decided to give me a quiz and handed me a random bag of various scoville ratings. As much as my wife can drive me crazy, I'm not yet at the point of giving her a Carolina reaper in her food. Give me another week of lockdown.
Could you please identify these? I have some clues but can't identify all of them.

I can’t sorry mate. The left red one looks like a Rocoto. There is a ghost I think.
