It’s Cold and Stick A Bit of Fat [braised Pork Knuckles] (pressure Cooker Version)

1. The pig's trotters are plucked off and the hair is rinsed and soaked for 15 minutes with clean water.

2. 2. Prepare the main spices and condiments for braised braised dishes. For homemade dishes, braised dishes do not have as many spices as possible. If you are not familiar with spices, it is best to choose what you are familiar with. I'm used to choosing: appropriate amount of green onion and ginger, 10g pepper, 5g chili, two star anise, a short piece of cinnamon, one grass fruit, 2-3 pieces of bay leaves, dried papaya slices (if you don’t have any, you can leave it alone), rock sugar 30g (everything at the time of this ingredient) Braised dishes, braised dishes mainly eat the aroma of the meat itself, if there are too many spices, it will become marinated, but the aroma of the ingredients themselves will not be eaten. Sometimes you can even leave out the spices. For example, the traditional famous dish Dongpo meat only puts yellow wine Soy sauce and rock sugar.)

3. Put the cold water in the pressure cooker into the trotters, two tablespoons of cooking wine, and boil appropriate amount of green onion and ginger (highly white wine has a better effect in removing fishy. If it is an electric pressure cooker, the step of blanching water is the same as using a boiling pot instead of other steps)

4. After boiling, rinse the trotters with cold water (don’t worry about the skin not getting bad)

5. Pour a little cooking oil in the pot (a little bit is good, a little less than the amount of cooking, if it is an electric pressure cooker, preheat it in advance)

6. Add cinnamon, star anise, pepper, chili, grass fruit and stir fry to create a fragrance

7. Then add a few slices of green onion and ginger and fry them to get a fragrance (cannot be put together with the spices in step 6, because the onion and ginger mature faster and put it together, and if the fire power is not mastered, it will be easy to mash)

8. At this time, pour into the fire to open up, blanch the cleaned pig's trotter

9. Cook two tablespoons of cooking wine.

10. Mix three tablespoons of light soy sauce, one tablespoon of dark soy sauce, one tablespoon of oyster sauce, and half a teaspoon of salt into a bowl of juice in advance (add some salt in advance to taste, don’t add enough salt at a time to make the meat bad)

11. Pour in the mixed bowl of juice

12. Add boiled water and the pig's knuckles will be covered (not too much, otherwise it will not be braised in brown sauce, it will become a stewed pork knuckle)

13. Finally, add rock sugar and dried papaya slices (dried papaya slices are not dried fruit papaya, but a kind of enzyme contained in green papaya, which can make the meat soft and rotten and not too greasy to eat. It has the same effect as lemon hawthorn. If you don’t have it or don’t add or put a few slices of lemon, hawthorn)

14. Cover the pressure cooker or electric pressure cooker with a lid, let the pressure cooker cool for 20 minutes, add salt and chicken broth to the pot to collect the juice to the extent you like; if it is an electric pressure cooker trotters, it can be used for about 30-35 minutes. (Add a small spoonful of salt after boiling, because there is salt in the previous bowl of juice, so the trotters have a certain flavor. At this time, you only need to adjust the saltiness at the end. Do not take too long or just Into pig's trotters soup).
