I've recently found a supermarket that has chicken feet in their
freezer.

Unfortunately, I passed on my chance to eat chicken feet. The next time I see that dish, I'm going to bite that sucka.

Back in the day when there were interested cooks on this group,
several of the women used chicken feet for making stock. I thought it
would be something that I would try. It seems that nutritionally
there are benefits.

I suppose there might be some benefits for a stock full of gelatin. It probably can't hurt, right?

Used to be a grocery store in the poor and mostly black
neighborhood here. They knew how to turn leftover animal parts
into good meals. Decendents of the slave times where the slaves
got leftover meat and learned to turn it all into really good
food....ie soul food. And trust me...they definitely know how to
"turn lemons into lemonade."

Daughter and me would shop there occasionally and we always went
right to the back of the store to the meat counter. Unlike other
grocery stores here, this one always featured odd animal parts
that you never saw in other local stores.
examples:
- package of chitlins
- the occasional whole hog's head
- package of pig's feet including toenails heheh
- 3lb package of chicken's feet

I loved the chicken feet package. Looked just like a package of
giant spiders.
I worked with a guy years ago and he liked chicken feet. Said his
wife would flour them and fry them. After frying, salt and serve
as snacks. He said you just gnarl on each one for awhile. Not
much food but good flavor. I've never tried that. Also that
store is gone now and I've never see chicken feet for sale since.

No more benefits than the meat and bones. That said people in the
old days learned not to waste any part of an animal. The feet are
at least good for stock... and (see my other post) for frying and
gnarling on as a nice salty snack.

I understand the rich gelatinous quality of good stock. I know how to
do that without hunting for chicken feet. But thanks for the info!

' glucosamine chondroitin, collagen and trace minerals. Moreover, a
chicken stock is an excellent source of calcium '
I have no scientific studies that compares today's stock made with
meat and bones to today's stock made with chicken feet. Or to your
stock made either way.

I don't think those items belonged to blacks alone. You may have been
in a black neighbor hood but until maybe 15-20 years ago I could find
all those things in my supermarket.

Yup...harder to find now that stores get shipped pre-packaged chickens
almost exclusively.
..
My mother never made chicken soup *without* the feet in the pot. In
fact, her scorching off the pin feathers over the gas burner left me
with quite an olfactory childhood memory.

Every Asian store near me still has them, though, and they, along with
duck feet, are a favorite of mine at dim sum outings.

And I agree - most other cultures make good use of the critters they
consume.

Yep, we agree. I'm glad you found them but I won't be looking for
chicken feet.

There are a lot of ethnic restaurants around now that use all those
cuts because they are a part of their culture. IMO that is why these
'worthless' parts are now so expensive. The meat packers have found a
target market for the parts.

A good dedicated Asian or Latino market will have those cuts at prices
the rest of us can afford.

Very seriously, for almost any cut meat needs they are the price
conscious places to shop.

I have one I go to that sells super thin cut ribeye steak - great for
stir fry or a Philly steak sammich.

And at an absurdly low $6.99/lb. you'd think it might be a poor cut -
not so, all choice grade.

One need only to see the pricing of chicken wings.

It's very similar to bone stock with the joints in final effect.

I didn't call you a biddy. I use the word sparingly.
