Thanks for that info Chuckr.

That recipe is definitely missing some key ingredients that have already been proven. Plus I don't think it was well known in the 70's of what was contained in the recipe.

Gino's! I finally found Gino's on this site! So much info, and hard to find at times! And also, anyone at a Gino's received the same bag of spices I used. White bag with printed ingredients. Secret. Special. Nothing, listed....And the Manager at Gino's, didn't cook. Hired off the street.....well known? No WAY!
