Eat the comb or feet?

[Banana01]

Does anyone eat the comb? I usually just discard the entire head, am i missing something? I found a recipe for braised combs and i think it looks worth a try.

Also feet is something i also just discard, do they taste good with the right recipes?

Lots of people eat the feet or use them for soup stock.

Personally never have or will eaten the comb, but there was a discussion about it on a different thread (don't ask which because Idon't remember at all) where general consensus was that it was a bit bland and rubbery wothout the right recipe

Chicken feet are often used for making soup stock. If memory serves, they have a fair amount of gelatin in them, meaning that the stock with gel when it cools, like Jell-O.
I haven't heard of anyone eating combs or wattles, but I do know that you can also use the head of a bird for stock.

Basically, if it's bones, it can become broth.

I don't know about the comb, but when properly cleaned (scald them and "take their socks off"), the feet are a splendid addition to the stock pot.

As many people mentioned, feet are a great addition in bone broth to help thicken it.
I don't eat the feet myself, but I dehydrate them and give them to my dog. She adores them.
Never tried the comb.

I use the combs, heads, feet, necks, hearts, livers, etc to make broth with.
