Braised Pork Feet



Preparation: I no longer do this step with the meat from farmer's market. But if you don't know the source of your meat, you'd better do it.

Boil a pot of water,  with ginger, cooking wine, salt and vinegar. Put pork feet in the boiling water for 3-5 mins, depends on the amount of meats.

Braise materials:
- clovers
- star anise
- sichuan peppercorn
- bay leaves
- soy sauce
- rock sugar




Steps:
1,  After preparation, boil water in a deep sauce pan (about 1/3 of the container), then add pork feet.
2.  Add all the spices, soy sauce, and rock sugar.
3.  High heat for 5 mins, medium-low for 20 mins,  then 45 min in low.

At about 30 min, give a taste check. Add more soy sauce if needed.

It will be better absorb the favor if put in the fridge overnight. In that case, reduce the cooking time by15 mins, because you will need to reheat for 15 minutes next day.

Preparation time is about 10 minutes. I set cooking timer while surfing on internet or cleaning kitchen. Next day, family will have another simple and tasty meal in < 30 min.
