Pig's trotters are a favorite food for people in both north and south of our country. Because trotters are rich in collagen and have a lower fat content than fat meat, long-term consumption can significantly enhance skin elasticity and make people younger. Therefore, there is a saying among the people-"Eating trotters in winter competes with bear's paw."
Speaking of the therapeutic effect of pig's trotters, I couldn't help but think of "Golden Wedding". When Wen Li was pregnant, her neighbor Zhuang Sao specially made a bowl of pig's trotters for her. Wen Li put both hands together and ate with a greedy look and was extremely satisfied. It can be seen that pig's trotters are a good food for pregnant women to replenish their bodies.

Even for ordinary women, eating more pig's trotters can enhance the breast. For middle-aged and elderly women, eating pig's trotters regularly can also relieve osteoporosis.
Pig's trotters can generally be used to stewed, grilled, and braise to make pork feet ginger, or to make soybean soup, peanut soup, etc. The method is simple. When selecting raw pig's trotters, the first thing is to look at the color of the hoof. Try to buy ones that are close to the color of the meat. Don't buy ones that are too white or black; in addition, it is best to smell them with your nose-if they are chemically treated or rotten, they will have a pungent taste; finally, it is best to choose pork trotters that contain more collagen and taste more delicious.
