Hello, a regular pot is fine, here is the method:
How to make braised pork elbow ?
Dehair the pork knuckles, deal with it cleanly
Add enough cold water to the pot, put in the pork knuckles, add 1 tablespoon of cooking wine, peppercorns, star anise
Don't cover the lid of the pot, and skim off the froth when it comes to a boil
Skim off the water to control the dryness, and check once again if there is no remnant of the pork hairs
Add a little bit of the oil in the pot and put in the rock sugar, and melt it over a low flame
Wait for the rock sugar to melt into a caramel color and put in the pork knuckles. melt into a caramel color into the pork elbow
Pork elbow into the pot, add soy sauce, soy sauce, cooking wine
and then add hot water, as far as possible not over the elbow, into the pot can not not be over the elbow, but also with the height of the elbow
If there are other dry spices at home, you can add them together. The main ones I use are grass berries, fennel, allspice, star anise, cinnamon, peppercorns, and cloves
Put the spice mix into a spice bag
Put the mixed spice bag into a pot and add ginger and scallions
The pot should be brought to a boil over high heat, then turned down to medium-low heat. Ensure that the pot is slightly open, cover the pot and simmer for one hour
After one hour of simmering, add salt to taste. You can turn the pork elbow over, and then cover the pot to continue to simmer for 1 hour
2 hours later, open the lid, the soup is gradually less, with a spoon soup ladle by ladle on the pork elbow, high heat juice can be served
