How to distinguish pig's hands from pig's feet can be distinguished by the following points.
First of all, the bones of pig's hand and pig's foot look different, which can be distinguished from the bones of pig's hand and pig's foot. The pig's front hoof, that is, the pig's hand, looks fat and has no obvious bending angle. The pig's hind hoof, that is, the pig's foot, doesn't seem to have much heavy meat. Pig's feet have bones, the trend is upward, and there is an obvious bending angle. Although there is not much difference in taste between pig's hands and pig's feet, there are still some picky diners who will distinguish pig's hands from pig's feet and make them. In short, there will be more pork hands and less pork feet.
Secondly, one more thing is to distinguish between pig hands and pig feet. Among the uncut pork hands and pig feet in the market, the pork hands have a tendon, while the pig feet have little or no obvious tendon. After the pig's hand is cut in half, you can see the obviously thick tendon. If it is a pig's foot, you can't see the obvious tendon or you can only see the smaller tendon after cutting it in half.
Finally, one thing that can help distinguish a pig's hand from a pig's foot is the shape and size of the toes on the pig's hand or pig's foot. The toes of pig hands will be close in size, and the toes of pig feet will be different in size. The toes of pig's feet are particularly recognizable. For example, the toes of pig's feet will look different, big and small, and the basic size of pig's hands is close, and there is no big difference.
In fact, there is not much difference between the nutritional value and edible value of pig's hands and pig's feet, but pig's hands have more tendons and meat will be thicker. It will be more suitable if it is used for stewing, stewing and stewing, and pig's trotters are more suitable for making soup. Most of the reasons for distinguishing pig's hands from pig's feet are because the prices are somewhat different.
