its basically MSG, its just a brand in the states, which is slightly different, but normal MSG will do.

nzoomed - where can you buy MSG in Auckland?
On the KFC related part of this ... has anyone sprinkled their chips with Vegetta? It tastes JUST like KFC chips!

i dont know, i guess chinese food supply shops would have it. i see 2 bags of the stuff here on TM. Try it without the MSG first and see how it tastes :)

What's Vegetta?

i find it hard to believe that - that combination of spices would make kfc flavour
you can get it at Pak'n'Save (and some fruit/vege shops). It's a smallish blue tin with a picture of a chef wearing a white chefs hat on it. It's basically vege stock from made somewhere overseas. Approx $5. 50 -8. 00 ish/tin depending on where you buy it. It's a real flavour enhancer

KFC batter itself is very salty.

there's lots of variants to this recipe, alot seem to have at least 3 of the same ingredients. Speaking of MSG, i have read somewhere that KFC stopped using it about 10 years ago, so its obviously not essential, but will be interesting to compare.

I use it at least once a week, and the whole family loves it, it makes a medium sized container full so you aren't getting all that salt at once... It is very tasty, not quite the same as KFC but close and a yummy treat on chicken, I just flour , egg and then the topping like when I use breadcrumbs, gives a thick cruchy topping, but it works just putting the chicken straight in some too... Hope that helps. . oh and I don't add MSG or whatever that is... .
