Pickled pepper chicken feet

Overview

My husband loves to eat, and it is a must-have delicacy when sitting in front of the computer and watching movies at night. Not to mention the ones bought from outside are a bit expensive, mainly because there are too many additives, which are bad for health

Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Soak the chicken feet in water for an hour or two, changing the water in between

   

2. 2 Cut off the nails, chop into small pieces, and continue soaking for a while to let the blood soak out as much as possible

   

3. 3 Put water in the pot and turn on the heat. Drain the chicken feet and pour them in. Add the onion and ginger and cook. If you want to keep the chicken soup, skim off the foam before boiling the water in the pot. After the pot is boiled, cook for three to five minutes until it is cooked through, but don’t overcook it

   

4. 4 Take out the cooked chicken feet, wash them and soak them in cold water for a while, preferably ice water. The chicken feet will taste better in this way

   

5. 5 Making brine: If you find it troublesome, you can buy ready-made brine in the supermarket for 2 yuan per bag, which is about 400 ml. After getting it back, pour it into a container, add 100 ml of white vinegar and 100 ml of pepper pickling water. Be sure to add white vinegar and pickled pepper water, otherwise the alcoholic taste of the stew will be too strong and salty. If you like spicy food, cut the pickled peppers into pieces and boil them in a pot for a while, then add them to the marinade after cooling. If you want to make the stew yourself, use 200ml of rice wine, add 300ml of water, scallions, ginger, star anise, cinnamon, and peppercorns, put them in a pot and bring to a boil, add more salt, and cook three to four times the amount of soup you usually use. It only takes about five minutes to cook. If you want it spicy, add the pickled peppers directly and cook them, but cut them into pieces. If you don’t like spicy food very much, add pickled peppers after the brine has cooled.

   

6. 6 Remove the cooled chicken feet and drain them. I don’t know why the chicken feet in the photo taken with the mobile phone are red?

   

7. 7 Use a clean bowl to hold the brine, put in the drained chicken feet, make sure the brine covers the chicken feet, cover it, and refrigerate it for a day before eating.
