Coffee anyone ?

[Baymule]

Sitting in recliner, feet up, glass of ice water, been busy. Scalded and peeled chicken feet, they are simmering. Peeled shrimp for shrimp Alfredo fettuccine for supper tonight. Jars are in dish washer. In another 30 minutes I’ll grab The Beast (my 921 All American pressure canner) and get to processing the broth.

My chickens would be screaming very loudly if I tried to scald and peel their feet!

You just made me realize why my back hurts today. I put my AA canner away yesterday. I’m 64.5”, and the shelf is about 7’. You know they are heavy!

How do you fix them?

Usually use the feet in soup stock.

Unless you want to go oriental. I think they cook them like we do chicken wings.

You either have a very large coffee cup (and a giant to hold it) or VERY small chickens!

I put mine on the bottom shelf in the big kitchen cabinet. It's not called The Beast for nuthin'. LOL

I scald and peel the feet, cut off the toenails, then simmer for several hours. I can the broth at 10 pounds pressure for 25 minutes. I got 7 quarts today. The broth is good to cook with, or just a hot cup of broth with fresh garlic and ginger grated into it is delicious. Sure is good for sore throats, cold and general feel bad. I cook the garlic and ginger into the broth when I heat it up. The feet are full of cartilage and make a real good broth.

I take out the long leg bone, pull the "meat" off and toss the bone. The dogs get the toes and meat.

I have the same. If I could find a low place to keep it, I’d be delighted.
I have turkey, duck and chicken stock and broth. The stock is for me. I give my queasy citified siblings the clear stuff.
