The spices that I used was put in haste so I did not really intend to copy the taste of KFC. Luckily, I remembered what I put and come to think of it, I may have accidentally discovered the 11 herbs and spices of KFC.
If you can see from the ingredients, there are 9 herbs and spices that I used, but it was not really 9 but 13 since the five spice powder contained, well, 5 spices namely, szechuan peppercorns, ground cloves, star anise, cinnamon, and fennel seeds. Now, since KFC only has 11 herbs and spices, I may need to experiment more and try to remove 2 herbs/spices that I used and try to find out also the correct proportions of the herbs/spices.
Once I got the correct herbs/spices, I will update this blog and share to everyone the recipe.
So keep in touch.
