I love using chicken feet in soup – they make it taste more ‘chickeny’ – don’t know why.

I also like using leeks in beef broth.

I just discovered your blog by accident but thought I’d let you know about the Jewish Food List. It’s a great on-line gathering of people, Jews and non-Jews, who share all kinds of Jewish food advice, recipes, cooking tips, questions, etc. It was there that I read that it is possible to still buy chicken feet in Israel. I remember my mother’s cooking them, and the little yokes that had not become eggs. I myself never ate the feet, but the “eggies” were a treat.

By the way, you can also download recipes free from the JFL’s website: http://www.jewishfood-list.com (I think that’s right…I haven’t had had a look lately, so I can’t remember for sure.) If you decide to subscribe, you never need to send in a recipe if you don’t want to. Lurkers are also welcome.

Mo’adim l’simcha, and have a wonderful rest-of-Sukkot.

B’shalom,
