Roots & Early Influences Scottish Influence: Scottish immigrants brought their tradition of deep-frying chicken pieces to America. West African Influence: West African traditions of seasoning and battering chicken before frying in oil also contributed significantly. Early American Recipes: The first American cookbook recipe from 1747 by Hannah Glasse included marinating chicken and dipping it in batter before frying in lard, a step towards crispier chicken. Colonel Sanders & The Original Recipe In the 1930s, Colonel Harland Sanders began selling his fried chicken in Kentucky. He developed his famous Original Recipe by using a pressure cooker to speed up cooking and create a flavorful, moist chicken. The Birth of "Extra Crispy" In 1972, KFC introduced Extra Crispy to compete with Church's Fried Chicken, offering a noticeably crispier coating than the Original Recipe. This innovation was so distinct that Sanders, initially displeased, agreed to label the new product "Extra Crispy," cementing its place on menus. Evolution & Cultural Impact Fried chicken, including crispy variations, became a symbol of Southern hospitality. Modern iterations, like Korean double-fried chicken or spicy Nashville Hot Chicken, show its global adaptation, with the crispy texture remaining a key draw.
