CATDOLL: Why do pig's trotters easily become swollen?

Causes of swollen pig's trotters

Pig's trotter is a part of the pig's foot and is one of the most common ingredients in pork. However, sometimes we find that pig's trotters are swollen when we buy or cook them. There are some reasons behind this problem.

1. High salt intake

Pig's trotters contain a high sodium content, and high salt intake can cause water retention in the body. When we eat too much salty food, it affects the body's water balance and causes swollen hooves.

2. Fat Content

Pig's trotters are rich in fat, especially the skin and flesh around the trotters. Excessive intake of high-fat foods will lead to fat accumulation in the body and may also cause swollen trotters.

3. Protein deposition

The collagen in pig's trotters is one of its characteristics. During the heating process, the collagen may coagulate and deposit, causing swelling in the pig's trotter area.

4. Other factors

In addition to the above reasons, environmental pollution, pig breeding environment and feed quality may also have an impact on pig hoof swelling. The external effects of these factors may lead to the appearance of pig hoof problems.

How to choose and process pig's trotters

In order to avoid buying swollen pig's trotters and deal with the purchased pig's trotters, we can take the following measures:

  • Choose fresh pig's trotters: Select those with no obvious swelling and uniform color.
  • Trim away excess fat: Before stewing or cooking the pig's trotters, you can trim away excess fat around the hoof.
  • Moderate processing: During the heating process, according to personal taste and swelling degree, appropriately control the heat and time to reduce collagen deposition.

In summary, the problem of swollen trotters is mainly related to high salt intake, fat content, protein deposition and other factors. By properly selecting and handling trotters, we can avoid buying trotters with swollen problems, and we can also reduce the swelling when cooking.
