Cooking Process

  1. Soak the pig front leg in water to remove the blood.

  2. After draining the blood, wash the pig front leg with clean water, then dry it with a kitchen towel. Use a torch to remove any remaining hair.

  3. In a pot or large saucepan that can hold the pig front leg, add all the following ingredients, then place the pig front leg inside, cover with a lid, and boil for 2 hours:

    • Water: 4L
    • Green onions: 2
    • Onion: 1
    • Garlic: 5 cloves
    • Cheongyang pepper: 4
    • Ginger: 2 pieces
    • Bay leaves: 4-5
    • Whole pepper: 1 tablespoon
    • Star anise: 5 pieces
    • Cola: 1 cup (180ml)
    • Pear juice: 1 cup (180ml)
    • Korean herbal medicine: 1 cup (180ml)
    • Soy sauce: 2 cups (360ml)
    • Cooking wine: 1 cup (180ml)
    • Brown sugar: 2/3 cup (about 90g)
    • Corn syrup: 1/2 cup (90ml)
    • Chunjiang: 3 tablespoons
    • MSG: 1 tablespoon

  4. After 2 hours, remove the well-cooked pig’s feet and let them cool at room temperature for about an hour before cutting. If you cut them immediately without cooling, the meat will fall apart and lose its shape.
