Chicken Feet Asado, Braised Chicken Feet. Some of our readers would rather not have this kind of dish and for those who are then just skip this post and browse the archives for more Filipino food. This is my second version of the dish, there were a lot of comments on my first version of Braised Chicken Feet being very salty. I myself did not understand how it turned out too salty to a lot of our reader probably because of some salty soy sauce, some brands are indeed salty and some are not.

The recommended amount was necessary for the reasons that we want our braised chicken feet as dark as possible. We do not want a pale colored chicken feet this will make the chicken feet more un-appealing. Another factor for the salty outcome of the first version of this dish was provably the quantity of the oyster sauce and chicken bullion, for this second version I have significantly scaled down quantity of these ingredients.
