I cannot find chicken feet here. So here is the soup I made.
4 smoked pork hocks
4 pig feet (split in half)
3 long slices of ginger root
7 dried ****aki mushroom
dash soy sauce
enough water in stock pot to cover pork
may want to add bullion/salt to taste
boil for 4 hours, allow to cool, place pot in fridge to chill overnight then scoop of solid fat from top of soup. now I can make into batches for each day. This soup would also be good if added beans, veg, potato
some I will make into egg drop soup like this
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
EGG DROP SOUP:
place soup on sauce pan and bring to light simmer
scramble 2 large eggs in bowl
when soup has come to boil, lower heat to medium. begin stiring soup in one direction and slowly add the eggs while stirring constantly in one direction. This makes the egg turn into little white strips in the soup. I also like to add a little cream and sometimes bits of veg or meat. yummy

i was wondering, do you think adding fresh oysters would be okay instead of dried ones? and also do we have to deep fry the dried ones or could we skip the deep frying part and add them straight to the soup?

I guess you can do like that. Oysters is not critical to recipe, but always cook seafood thoroughly.
