[MR] chicken feet

When I lived in Sherman Oaks CA, I patronized a local supermarket that sold kosher chicken feet as well as kosher chickens. The little old ladies who frequented the place assured me that one cannot make *proper* chicken soup without chicken feet. The gelatin in the feet gives the soup more body.

I haven't had chicken feet prepared the Chinese way, but I've had duck feet from the dim sum cart.
