This recipe was extracted from Miss Parloa's kitchen companion (1887) by Maria Parloa, page 149. The excerpt below is the record exactly as published.

Fried Pigs' Feet. Cook and cool the feet, as for broiling. Split them, and season well with salt, pepper, and lemon juice. Dip in beaten egg and then in bread crumbs, and fry in boil- ing fat for five minutes. Take up and drain, and serve at once on a hot dish. If eight feet be used, the ingredients needed with them will be two eggs, one pint of crumbs, one table- spoonful of salt, half a teaspoonful of pepper, and two table-spoonfuls of lemon juice
