          Some people don't like eating chicken feet because it is discarded as waste product. They thought it is disgusting because live chicken usually step on their own poop even though it is well cleaned before cooking it. It looks weird and not appetizing. Some aren't familiar about it and how to cook it.

It can be found everywhere from formal banquet halls or in an ordinary eatery or at home. In Korea chicken feet is stir fried with hot chili sauce.They are often eaten as good serve with alcohol.

          Chicken feet looks yucky but it is abundant with health benefits. It is high in collagen which  prevent bone loss, good for our joint, it also aid skin health. Collagen help to raise energy level and boost metabolism.

          Chicken feet adobo is one of my favorite specially when it is a little bit spicy. Adobo is a Filipino dish usually meat cooked in soy sauce and vinegar and a little amount of sugar. I made an experiment cooking chicken feet with soup. I added some vegetables to make it healthier.
