做法

分步操作

  1. 1

    Rinse the pork hocks thoroughly under cold running water and pat them dry with paper towels.

    约 2分钟

    烹饪提示: Ensuring the hocks are clean helps remove any impurities.

  2. 2

    Place the pork hocks in a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven.

    约 1分钟

    烹饪提示: Choose a pot large enough to comfortably submerge the hocks in liquid.

  3. 3

    Add the onion, carrot, celery, bay leaf, juniper berries, black peppercorns, whole cloves, and salt to the pot with the pork hocks.

    约 3分钟

  4. 4

    Pour in the water and white wine vinegar, ensuring the pork hocks are fully submerged. Add more water if necessary.

    约 1分钟

    烹饪提示: The vinegar helps tenderize the meat and adds a subtle tang.

  5. 5

    Bring the liquid to a rolling boil over high heat, then immediately reduce the heat to low.

    约 10分钟

    烹饪提示: Skim off any foam that rises to the surface during the boiling process.

  6. 6

    Cover the pot and simmer gently for 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the pork hocks are very tender and almost falling off the bone.

    约 2小时 30分钟

    烹饪提示: Check occasionally to ensure the liquid level is sufficient and the hocks remain submerged. Add hot water if needed.

  7. 7

    Carefully remove the pork hocks from the pot and transfer them to a serving platter.

    约 2分钟

    烹饪提示: They will be very delicate, so use tongs or a slotted spoon to avoid breaking them apart.

  8. 8

    Strain the cooking liquid through a fine-mesh sieve to remove the vegetables and spices. You can reserve this flavorful broth for other uses or discard it.

    约 5分钟

    烹饪提示: This broth makes an excellent base for soups or gravies.

  9. 9

    Serve the Eisbein hot, typically with sauerkraut, mashed potatoes, or mustard.

妥善保存

储存

Store leftover Eisbein in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

重新加热

Reheat gently in a pot with a splash of broth or water, or in the oven until warmed through.
