Chicken Feet Soup
Easy recipe for making broth and soup from chicken feet, which can be more budget friendly than a whole chicken and creates a lot of healthful gelatin and collagen.
Ingredients
- 2 pounds chicken feet cleaned, preferably free range or pastured
- 1 gallon filtered water
- 2 tbl apple cider vinegar
- sea salt
- pepper
- 4 stalks celery optional, chopped
- 3 carrots optional, chopped
- 1 onion optional, chopped
Instructions
-
Place cleaned chicken feet in pot. I use a Vita-Clay slow cooker.
-
Add filtered water.
-
Add optional chopped vegetables and stir in apple cider vinegar.
-
Simmer mixture for 9-18 hours. If using a Vita-clay, set it to "slow" for 9.5 hours (this is the max setting for time). If you wish to go longer, you can reset for another 9 hours when it is done.
-
Strain into a glass bowl.
-
Cool on the counter until the broth is slightly warm or room temperature.
-
Pour into mason jar, seal the lid and refrigerate. Rewarm on the stove, add salt and pepper to taste and enjoy on its own or use as a base for all your favorite soup recipes.
