4 brined pigs' trotters
2 carrots
1 stick celery
1 onion
6 fl wine vinegar
1 butter,Melted
1 breadcrumbs,Dried
1 pn allspice
Get plain pig's trotters from your butcher and then brine them for
24 hours. Once they've been brined long enough, bandage them with several strips of cheesecloth, or tie them several times around the short way with string, since they will try with all their might to fall apart into many pieces while cooking. Put into a pot with the vegetables, and cover with water and the vinegar. Simmer gently for 6 or 7 hours. Allow to cool in the liquid. -- To serve, split the trotter in two the long way and roll in melted butter and dried breadcrumbs mixed with a pinch of allspice. Heat slowly under a broiler, or in the oven at 350 F, until hot and crisp on the outside. Serve with mustard and horseradish for those who like such things....and LOTS of wet wipes and paper towels.
