How to choose fresh and delicious duck feet
- Choose duck feet with light yellow skin, not too white or dark yellow, as they may have been preserved for a long time or dyed.
- Observe the duck feet to see if the skin is intact, not discolored, with no spots or bruises, as these should not be purchased.
- Hold the duck feet, and if they have a slight bounce, they should be chosen, as they often have thicker and fresher skin than those that are no longer elastic.
How to Prepare Spicy Sichuan Duck Feet
-
Prepare the duck feet
Pour all the duck feet into a basin, cut the lemon into pieces, and squeeze all the juice into the basin. Then, pour 100ml of alcohol in and gently massage the duck feet, carefully rubbing between the toes.
After 5 minutes of massaging, the water will turn murky, and the duck feet will be clean; rinse them thoroughly with water several times, then cut off the nails on the duck feet. Take them out and let them drain.
-
Boil the duck feet
Place a pot on the stove, add 500ml of water, and add smashed ginger. Gradually put the duck feet in and boil for 15 minutes.
After the duck feet are cooked, take them out and let them drain.

Stir-fried duck feet
Place a pan on the stove, add 1 tablespoon of cooking oil and 1 tablespoon of annatto oil. Once the oil is hot, add star anise, cinnamon, and minced garlic to sauté until fragrant. Gently stir until the garlic turns light golden brown, then add the duck feet.
Stir gently to give the duck feet a beautiful golden color.
Next, add 400ml of water, add 1 teaspoon of salt, 1/2 teaspoon of monosodium glutamate, 1 tablespoon of oyster sauce, 1.5 tablespoons of sugar, and 1 tablespoon of chili powder.
After 15 minutes, the sauce will gradually reduce, stir well so that the duck feet absorb the spices evenly and do not burn. Once the sauce has completely reduced, turn off the heat and plate the duck feet.
