Jokbal (족발)
Soy-braised pig’s trotters — gelatinous, sliced, eaten with shrimp sauce and wraps.
Heat: mild · Vegetarian: no
Long simmer
Blanch trotters, then braise 2–3 hours in soy, garlic, ginger, a splash of soju, and a little sugar until a chopstick slides in. Chill so the slices hold, then rewarm. Table: lettuce, 새우젓, raw garlic, ssamjang. This is a late-night order in Korea; at home it is a Sunday pot.
