Anyone have a good recipe for pickle pigs feet or hocks?
I would like a really good easy one please.

I have one that calls for salt,white wine vinegar,whole cloves,black
pepper corns,whole star anise pods,and pickling spice(however my P.spice
had abit of cinniminn in it and it gave the feet/hocks a sweet
taste...didn't like)

Thank you all you kind chefs.

Here is the one I have been using.

Pickled Pigs Feet
Source: Recipezaar/recipe by Heidi L
I grew up eating these but did not like the ones I could buy at the store.I
finally found a recipe in an old James Beard cookbook at my local library so
I could make my own.I use raw pork hocks instead of pigs feet because they
have more meat in them.

2 quarts water

2 carrots

2 onions

1 teaspoon thyme (dried)

1 bay leaf (whole)

2 teaspoons parsley flakes

1 tablespoon salt

12 whole black peppercorns (crushed)

6 pig's feet (split)
white wine or cider vinegar

2 garlic cloves

2 onions

1. In a large stock pot or other large pot,put first 7 ingredients in the
pot.Cut onion into pieces.Also cut carrot into pieces.

2. Bring to a boil and then simmer 15 to 20 minutes.

3. Add the pigs feet to the seasoned water.

4. Simmer pigs feet for 3-4 hours.

5. When time is up remove pigs feet and let cool enough to touch.

6. When cool put them in a bowl or canning jars.

7. with 2 sliced onion and 2 cloves sliced garlic divided between
them(Garlic can be omitted if you dont like it) and any seasoning you want
to add.

8. Heat white wine or cider vinegar and pour over pigs feet so they are
covered completely.

9. Refrigerate for 3-5 days before eating.

10. Keep any left overs refigerated.
