How to choose fresh and delicious chicken feet
- You should choose chicken feet that have a natural pinkish-white color, firm skin, good elasticity, and feel neither slimy nor wet to the touch.
- Typically, fresh chicken feet will have 4 toes curled inward, and when pressed, the feet will expand.
- Avoid buying chicken feet that are plump, swollen, and have unwrinkled skin, as these may be feet that have been water-injected.
- Additionally, you should not choose chicken feet with unusual colors and those that show red spots, along with any blue-purple or yellow streaks!
