Braised Chicken Feet

Overview

Braised chicken feet was a rare delicacy in that era of scarce supplies. I remember eating it only during the Chinese New Year when I was a kid. After graduating from college, I would really miss the various kinds of braised dishes my mother made. I would call her to learn from her, and gradually I could make her taste. When I was homesick, I would cook a plate of chicken feet and catch up on a TV series. My days were no longer so lonely, and I would sigh that life is so beautiful. In the banquet, braised chicken feet can play an appetizing role and can affect the taste nerves of a table of diners. Chicken feet are rich in calcium and collagen. You won’t gain weight if you eat more of them. Proper intake can not only soften blood vessels, but also has beautifying effects.
