I'm one of those people who grew up eating chicken feet in "addidas" form. Mejo late na nung nadiscover ko yung "sweet-and-sour" na mala-gelatin ang sabaw na form nya, at sobrang ganda syang pangpulutan. Wag nga lang maarte masyad kasi kakamayin at kakamayin mo siya. I've somehow come up with a method to eat them without getting my hands dirty, tho it takes a bit of hand and mouth dexterity.
masarap naman yung adidas, nag crave ako bigla
Nagkacravings din ako nung nag-reply ako kanina, lol!
Actually, namiss ko yung addidas, helmet, betamax, isaw baboy, isaw manok na pampulutan. No, scratch that, kahit pang-ulam solb na!
helmet lang talaga at betamax ang hindi ko mahiligan, pero the rest, yum yum yum
Baka di lang marunong mag halbos ng betamax yung nabilhan mo noon. Also I like them betamax a bit burnt.
Helmet lang talaga dami kong isyu. Parang mas marami pa yung buto kesa sa laman. And the idea of eating the chicken brain. ._.
Basta hindi lang matinik yung buto, keri lang ako kahit na mabuto ang helmet. And I actually like the idea of eating the chicken brain. Mejo weird nga lang kung iisipin mo. I also don't even think about what I'm eating when I'm eating balut, so…. 😅
It's understandable. Mahirap kainin ang helmet, mahirap lutuin ang betamax (in the sense that it quickly gets that off taste if isn't fresh or prepared properly).
There was a time in my life though where our family survived on betamax as it's the cheapest item in the menu. Basta may matinong sauce, okay nang pang-ulam! On the other hand, rare lang din akong kumain ng helmet since makalat syang kainin. You either have to make sure that the little bones are chewed properly, or spit them out. I like the skin and the soft parts inside of it though. I'm also the kind of weirdo who'd dig deep inside fish heads for any available meat or soft parts, so I fully accept that helmet is probably not for everyone (and neither does fish heads).
Masarap yung fish heads, mas mahirap yung helmet, for me at least
Ano yung addidas form 😭
I think yung kinain ko ay mala-gelatin, kaya pala parang namumuo siya. Normal pala yun. It's a whole new world
Ayan yung adidas: skewered chicken feet on a grill
tapos yung mala-gelatin na sinabi ko is the one that looked like this: sweet and spicy chicken feet
The way my mom cooks the latter is a sweet-and-sour adobo style but it's also available in some Chinese restaurants. I heard it being touted as being good for the skin due to its collagen content (kaya rin mala-gelatin siya) too.
