Pig Trotter Aspic

Laura said:
Yesterday we were talking about making an aspic for hotter weather. We decided to do it with pig feet. It turned out DELICIOUS!

We took for pig feet, put them in the pressure cooker.
Added:
About 15 whole cloves
2 level tsps salt
1 tsp pepper
2 bay leaves
1 tablespoon dried onions
1/4 tsp dried garlic.
2 to 3 cups vinegar
Cover with water and a little extra.

apple cider vinegar ok?

must remember to defrost trotters so I can inspect them better before putting them in pressure cooker. Hairy trotters!
 
Thanks Laura, that's what I used. Smelled great.... dogs were going mad for the smell. Yum, that's 7 breakies sorted with three trotters and some bacon!
 
Interesting recipe for a terrine. I will ponder some variations on the theme as I am not there yet with pig feet. I find the term 'trotters' to be both appropriate and very amusing at the same time.
The recipe reminds me of scrapple. The scrapple sold around here has a clear gelatin base, rather than a grain/meal matrix as I see in posted recipes.
