Paksiw na Pata (Braised Pig’s Feet)

Paksiw na Pata (Braised Pig’s Feet) delivers tender, gelatin-rich pork simmered in a bright, vinegary soy broth balanced with a hint of sweetness. Peppercorns, garlic, onion, and bay leaves infuse deep, aromatic warmth, finishing in a glossy sauce that clings to each bite. Serve it steaming hot over rice for a comforting family dinner or a cozy weekend meal.

Paksiw na Pata (Braised Pig’s Feet)
  1. 1

    Combine the pig's feet, vinegar, water, soy sauce, onion, garlic, peppercorns, sugar, bay leaves, and salt in a stockpot; bring to a boil; let it boil for 2 to 3 minutes.

  2. 2

    Lower the heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the meat is tender, pulls away from the bones easily, and the liquid thickens, about 1 hour; serve hot over rice, if desired.
