Ingredients
- 15 grams dried seaweed (haidai, 海带, also known as kelp or kombu - sliced into thin strips, a small handful)
- 1 cup raw shelled peanuts (150g)
- 1 1/2 pounds chicken feet (700g)
- 2 tablespoons Shaoxing wine
- 4 lices ginger
- 12 cups water (2800 ml)
- salt (to taste)
- 1 scallion (chopped)
Instructions
- Soak the dried seaweed for an hour, rinsing it with water a couple of times to ensure there’s no sediment. Drain and set aside. Rinse the peanuts also and set aside.
- Rinse the chicken feet, and trim away the nail portion with kitchen shears. Transfer to a soup pot. Fill with enough water to submerge completely, and add 2 tablespoons Shaoxing wine. Bring to a boil, and let boil for 1 minute. Remove from the burner, drain, and rinse clean.
- The chicken feet then go back into the soup pot with the hai dai (海带), peanuts, ginger slices, and 12 cups of water. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.
- Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and cook with the lid on for an additional 20 minutes.
- Lastly, reduce the heat to a low simmer (with movement, but no large bubbles) for 2 hours, until the chicken feet are soft and falling off the bone tender. Add salt to taste, garnish with chopped scallions, and serve.
