original recipe
The initial version
Original recipe describes the first or authentic version of a prepared food, especially one that has since spawned variations: The original recipe calls for butter, not margarine.
The phrase is strongly associated with KFC's trademarked "Original Recipe" fried chicken, distinguished from newer offerings.
More broadly, it can describe anything in its initial, unmodified form: She prefers the original recipe Coke.
