How to make yam and pig's trotter soup

Now we are entering the early autumn season, so making some delicious dishes at this time to supplement nutrition for your family will be very effective. Today I will introduce to you a yam and pig's trotter soup that is suitable for nourishing your body in autumn.

1.1 Cut some ginger and smash it, cut two pieces of green onion, and prepare peppercorns and star anise.

2.2 Wash the chopped pig's trotters with warm water to remove the broken bones and some blood.

3.1 Boil the pig's trotters in a pot. After removing the "unknown objects", take out the pig's trotters and soak them in cold water. You can also continue to remove the blood foam on the pig's trotters.

4.2 Pour all the above ingredients into the pot, make sure to add cold water, turn on the fire, I set it to about 1800W and boil it. While boiling, use a spoon to remove the "unknown objects" floating on the soup (actually blood foam, I think it can remove some grease).

5. Put the pot into cold water again, add some ginger, bring to a boil at 1800W, then adjust to about 1000W (low heat) and cook slowly until the soup turns white and the pig's trotter begins to soften (you can add some boiling water during this period to prevent the water from drying up), then add red dates and lotus seeds.

6. When handling yam, please be careful and wear rubber gloves to peel it. I use a steel spoon to scrape the skin because a peeling knife is not easy to use on yam. Cut it into small pieces.

7. Add the yam after the pig's trotter becomes soft. You can choose the taste of the yam yourself. If you want it to be crispier, put the yam in later. If you want it to be softer, put it in earlier. Then the fragrant yam and pig's trotter soup is ready.

Delicious food is tempting, but only when you make it yourself can you understand its true value. As for everyone, after understanding the recipe of yam and pig’s trotter soup, I believe most people will try it themselves.
