pig's feet
Called trotters by the British, these are the feet and ankles of pigs. Because they're bony and sinewy, pig's feet require long, slow cooking. They're quite flavorful and full of natural gelatin. Pig's feet are available pickled, fresh and smoked-the latter two are particularly good in soups, stews and sauces. See also
PORK.
