INTRODUCTION:
The foot of the bird contains only part of the ankle bones. In mammals, all of the ankle bones are included as part of the foot.
NUTRITIONAL VALUE:
Chicken feet consist of skin, cartilage, tendons, and bones. Even without providing much meat, they’re high in collagen — the most abundant protein in your body. This collagen content may help relieve joint pain, aid skin health, and prevent bone loss.
USAGE:
Chicken feet are particularly used in stews and soups. They are often steamed to become part of a main dish with rice, vegetables, and most likely another part of the chicken, such as the breast or thighs.
STORAGE:
Store in a cool, dry area for 30 days (unopened) or freeze for up to 6 months.
