I dunno...I was at a Dim Sum place once and they served deep fried chicken feet. I was gonna try ‘em but no one could tell me if I was supposed to gnaw the meat off ‘em or just toss in my mouth and eat ‘em bones and all.
As my wife is Chinese, I’ve had my run-in with Chicken Feet.
You want to just let your teeth scrape the bones clean. I’ve had ‘em, but, like pig’s feet, it ain’t meat. It’s some kind of gelatinous whatever that just seems like a waste of time.
But, the worst thing about Chicken Feet, is the preparation.
In their raw state, they bear a strong resemblance to a baby’s hands. Watching my wife trim the finger-nails off prior to cooking, is more than I can stand...
You’re makin’ me hungry! I love good chicken feet as Dim Sum!
