About Pork trotters

Pork trotters, or pig's feet, are a traditional delicacy found in various cuisines worldwide, including Chinese, Korean, European, and Caribbean dishes. Renowned for their rich gelatinous texture, they are primarily composed of skin, cartilage, tendons, and bones, which yield a high amount of collagen when cooked. Collagen supports skin health and joint flexibility, making pork trotters a popular choice for those seeking these benefits. They are typically braised, stewed, or used to enrich broths, absorbing bold flavors and spices during preparation. While pork trotters are a nutrient-dense source of protein and valuable minerals like calcium and magnesium, they are also high in fat and cholesterol, which should be considered by individuals managing heart health or cholesterol levels. Moderation and balanced preparation can help maximize their nutritional benefits while minimizing less healthy aspects.
