3. Notes when making lemongrass, lime and mango pickled chicken feet

Fresh chicken feet will have a natural pink-white color, the bones inside are still red. Do not choose chicken feet that are too plump, puffy on the outside, and the skin is not wrinkled.

Avoid buying chicken feet that have deformities, lumps, or blood clots because they may be from sick chickens. Also, do not buy chicken feet that are scratched or bruised because they are usually chicken feet that have been stored for a long time.

To choose delicious green mangoes, you need to choose fruits that are round at the waist and gradually narrow towards the tail. The outer skin has a moderate green color, not too light or too dark.

Regarding preservation, lemongrass and lime pickled chicken feet can be used for 4 to 5 days if kept in the refrigerator.

Do not let utensils such as plates, spoons, chopsticks, etc. get wet because the food will easily become scum and spoil quickly.

You should use a glass jar to store the lemongrass and lime chicken feet, which is both aesthetically pleasing and has a longer shelf life than other food containers. Note that you need to wash and dry the glass jar before storing the lemongrass and lime chicken feet.
