Braised pork belly
Overview
How can we celebrate Chinese New Year without hoof bones? During the Chinese New Year in the Northeast, every family will make one. Slice it, add garlic and steam it in a pot. The fragrance can be smelled for miles away!

Ingredients
Steps
-
Soak the hooves and pig's trotters in water to remove blood, and scald them with boiling water to remove surface oil! This can remove some of the meaty smell.
-
Put it into the stainless steel inner pot of the pressure cooker and use the pressure cooker for 15 minutes. It will be especially soft and suitable for the elderly and children.
-
Add the prepared seasonings one by one. This step requires some experience. The salt and sugar should be appropriate, and add a little more than usual when cooking.
-
Prepare the onions, ginger, star anise, bay leaves, cinnamon, etc. and just wrap them on top.
-
Just like that, very simple.
-
Set the pressure cooker to meat/ribs and wait for 15 minutes! During this time, the whole room will be filled with the aroma of meat! Drooling. 😄
-
After the pressure cooker deflates, you can take it out of the pot. A pig's trotter has already melted in the soup! It's so soft that it breaks into pieces when touched, and I sucked it in with just one kiss! 😄
-
Don't throw away the excess soup. Remove impurities and put it in a bowl. After cooling, it becomes jelly-like and full of collagen. During the Chinese New Year, many dishes can be used directly as soy sauce. It tastes better than stock.
