What makes it different
Why they work
Feet are skin, tendon and cartilage and almost nothing else. All of that is collagen, and collagen is what turns water into stock with body. A broth made with feet sets like jelly in the fridge. One made without them never will.
An ingredient, not a dish
Outside of dim sum, where they are braised and genuinely good, these go into the pot and come back out again. Simmer them, strain them, discard them.
How many you need
A handful changes a whole pot. Add them to a chicken carcass, or use them on their own when a carcass is the thing you are short of.
If you have ever wondered why your stock comes out thin, this is the missing ingredient. Nothing else on a chicken does this job.
FROM THE FARM
We raise our birds on pasture here in Monticello, Kentucky and have them processed at a USDA-inspected poultry plant. We grow them eight to ten weeks, which is two to four weeks longer than a commodity bird, and it is the single biggest difference you will taste.
How to use them
1
Rinse them well. Blanch them a minute in boiling water and drain, if you want a clear stock rather than a cloudy one.
2
Into a pot with onion, carrot, celery and peppercorns. Cover with cold water and bring it to a bare simmer.
3
Four hours at least. It is ready when the liquid feels sticky on your lips — that is the gelatin.
4
Strain it and chill it. A good stock sets firm enough to hold a spoon upright. Freeze it in blocks.
What you're getting
One package of chicken feet.
From birds grown eight to ten weeks on pasture.
Raised on our farm in Monticello, Kentucky, processed at a USDA-inspected plant.
Weights are averages. Every package is cut by hand, so no two are exactly alike.
