FAQS
Can I use a different cut of pork instead of pig feet?
Yes, you can substitute pig feet with pork shoulder or another meaty cut if pig feet are not available.
Do I need to peel the cucumbers before slicing them?
Peeling is optional. If the cucumbers have a thick or bitter skin, you may peel them. Otherwise, leave the skin on for added texture and nutrients.
How should I store leftovers?
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat thoroughly before serving.
What can I serve with Pig Feet Sauce?
This dish pairs well with white rice, mashed potatoes, or crusty bread to soak up the sauce.
Is there a way to enhance the flavor further?
Adding vinegar during the last 30 minutes of cooking can enhance the flavor with extra tanginess.
