As a kind of "high protein and high fat" food, trotters are deeply loved by men, women and children, especially female friends. Eating trotters often has beauty beauty and nourishing effects. Pig's front hoof is meaty, small in bone, sinewy, delicious and non-greasy. It is suitable for braising in soy sauce and burning in soy sauce. It is right to choose the front hoof when eating meat. Pigs lie prone on four feet and carry heavy bodies, so the front legs often exert force, so the trotters are better after exercise, which makes the meat in front of the trotters more compact and better to eat, while the trotters do not exercise much after exercise, so the collocation of meat is also measured.
The hind hoof belongs to fat meat and bones, and it has no tendons. If it is used for cooking with braised sauce, soy sauce and other methods, the taste will be much worse than that of the front hoof, but it is also good for making pig's hoof soup, which can not only make up for the lack of taste, but also boil out a lot of bone oil, which is delicious. There is an oval rib in the cross section of the front hoof, and the joints in the cross section are relatively small. When buying trotters, you can pick them up and look at the cross section. If there are tendons, it is the front hoof; if there are no tendons, the joints in the cross section are large, which is the rear hoof.
Pig's front hoof and pig's back hoof are pig's feet, and the reason that can directly lead to the difference in texture and meat quality is nothing more than related to the pig's movement mode, because when pigs walk, they mostly use their hooves first and then use scattered force to keep up with the ground, so the meat quality of pig's front hoof is relatively tight, which not only tastes good, but also contains more meat, which is satisfactory and chewy. Compared with the front hoof, the rear hoof spends less energy in exercise and generally plays a role in supporting the pig. Therefore, the fat gum of the hind hoof is more than that of the front hoof, and the bone is also larger. Suitable for beauty lovers, because the collagen in the hind hoof is much more than that in the front hoof.
