Love Jokbal from Korea - What is Jokbal ?
Jokbal is a Korean dish consisting of pig's trotters cooked with soy sauce and spices. It is usually braised in a combination of soy sauce, ginger, garlic, and rice wine.
Jokbal (족발) is a boiled and seasoned pig’s trotters dish, made by boiling pigs’ feet in water along with leeks, garlic, ginger, cheongju (청주; rice wine), sugar and gangjang (간장; Korean soy sauce). The bones are removed and the meat is cut into thick slices before serving. Like bossam, it is served on a large platter meant to be shared with other diners, and eaten with saeujeot (새우젓; salt fermented shrimp). Due to its unique greasiness and strong flavor, jokbal is eaten in the same manner as other Korean grilled meats are eaten, wrapped in lettuce along with other vegetables. As jokbal is considered an anju, it is often eaten with soju or other alcoholic beverages.
Jokbal is known to be good for the skin due as it contains rich amounts of gelatin derived from the collagen inside the pork skin. This natural collagen improves skin elasticity and is effective at preventing wrinkles. Jokbal is also known to be effective at preventing hangovers. For these reasons and more, jokbal has been eaten by Koreans for many centuries. Some of the earliest records of jokbal date back as far as the early 1600s, in the famous traditional Korean medical book, Dongui Bogam.
