Delicious Pig's Trottter King Introduction
Located in the Da Ping Lin culinary scene in Xindian for over 20 years, Ke Kou Pig Trotters, run by Boss Wan, has uniquely captured the taste buds of food lovers with his secret braising technique. Just by looking at the several pots of braised trotters at the entrance, with each pot carefully set at different temperatures, you can appreciate their visually pleasing colors and tempting aromas. Coupled with strict quality control, the deliciousness consistently delivers the same level of flavor, making it hard to resist this culinary temptation. The signature pig trotters embody Boss Wan’s decades of experience. Each day, he carefully selects the mid-section and trotters of fresh hogs from the market. Before cooking, the trotters are blanched to remove any gamey taste, then chilled to firm up the meat. The preparation also involves boiling, deboning, and adding scallions, garlic, and other ingredients, followed by high-heat braising for seven to eight hours, before switching to low heat to fully tenderize. Boss Wan mentions that before serving, the trotter pots are brought to a boil again and then simmered, repeating this process multiple times until the trotters achieve a melt-in-your-mouth, tender, and fragrant quality that is rich yet not greasy. Customers dining here not only enjoy the delicious pig trotters but often find themselves unintentionally consuming several bowls of the main dish, braised pork rice.
