Trotter is rich in collagen, which is a kind of glue composed of biological macromolecules. It is the most important protein component in tendons, ligaments and connective tissues, and has the effect of beauty and beauty. From a medical point of view, it is also a multi-purpose medicine, which has the functions of replenishing weakness, replenishing kidney essence, and strengthening waist and knees.
A few nights ago, I chatted with Dad Ang on WeChat, and suddenly I hadn’t bought trotters for a long time. They were all foodies, and when my heart moved, I immediately said to make the next day. . . The next morning, when I went to the big vegetable market, I originally planned to buy pork knuckles. When asked about the price, it was 23 per jin, and then asked how much he carried, and the answer was 16 per jin; well, just buy a whole piece of 5 jin. If there are more, just come back and cook it in a few minutes
As the days get colder, casseroles are more popular. Stewed a pot of pork knuckles and add some green radishes from the season. After two hours of slow braising, the pig's feet are soft and waxy, and the radish is sweet and refreshing. It is a very comfortable meal. If there is any leftover, it is also great to save the noodles for the next meal. . .

Tips:

2: Add enough water to the soup at one time, try to avoid adding water in the middle, if you really want to add it, remember to add boiling water.
3: The final collection of juice depends on personal preference. Our family always likes to save more soup to eat bibimbap or cook noodles.
4: Do not add salt when frying, because the meat is not easy to simmer after adding salt.
