Trotter is rich in collagen and has a lower fat content than fatty meat. It contains calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, iron, vitamin A, vitamin D, vitamin E, vitamin K and other beneficial ingredients. It can prevent and treat skin wrinkles, enhance skin elasticity and toughness, and has special significance for delaying aging and promoting the growth and development of children. For this reason, people call trotters a beauty food. I bought a pig's trotter in the supermarket and simmered it slowly in a casserole. The skin was soft and rotten, and it was a pleasure to eat alone.

Braised Pork Trotters

1. Wash the pig's feet, add dark soy sauce, cooking wine, green onions, and ginger and marinate for a few hours.

2. Take it out and let it dry so that the surface is free of moisture.

3. Pour oil, rock sugar, bay leaves, dried chili, Chinese pepper, star anise, Angelica dahurica in a casserole, fry on low heat to fragrant, melt the rock sugar.

4. Put the trotters in the casserole and roll them back and forth.

5. Fry until the entire surface changes color.

6. Add green onions, ginger, and garlic.

7. Add boiling water and salt, and simmer for two and a half hours.

8. Stew until the trotters are soft and rotten, collect the juice and bring it out.

Tips:
1. There should be no moisture on the surface of the trotters when they are put in the pot.
2. Use a casserole, pour boiling water in it, not cold water.
3. You can add more soup, it will be easy to soften after a longer simmering time.
