When buying pig trotters, we often don't know whether to buy the front hooves or the back hooves, and I really couldn't tell the difference between the front hooves and the back hooves. Ha ha!
So is there any obvious difference between the front and back hooves of the pig's trotters? Do you think the front hoof is good or the back hoof is good?
When I buy a pig's trotter, I look at its appearance and only buy a straight front hoof, not a curved back hoof. Because I have heard experts say that the characteristics of pig trotters are: the front hooves of pigs have more meat and less bones; while the back hooves of pigs have less meat and more bones. Depending on whether you want to eat meat or drink soup, you can buy the front hoof if you want to eat meat; if you want to drink soup, you can buy the back hoof.
Nutritionally speaking, the front and back hooves of pig trotters are not much different, and they are also rich in protein, fat, vitamins, minerals, etc., and have the effect of strengthening muscles and bones. Pig trotters also contain a lot of collagen, eat more is good for the skin, so it is loved by the majority of female consumers.
