How to choose fresh ingredients
How to choose fresh noodles
- You should choose noodles that are shiny yellow, have a light layer of oil covering the noodles, and have elasticity, as these are fresh noodles.
- Avoid buying noodles that are dark in color and mushy, as these are old noodles and no longer tasty.
- Additionally, to ensure hygiene and quality, you can also make fresh noodles at home following the recipes suggested by TasteVN.
How to choose fresh and delicious pig trotters
- You should choose the hind legs of the pig as they usually have more meat and nutrients.
- Buy trotters that have good elasticity, with intact hooves and no hair, as these are fresh and delicious trotters.
- Do not buy trotters that have unusual colors such as green or purple, have a foul smell, or are slimy, as these are from sick pigs or trotters that have been stored too long and are about to spoil.
- Additionally, you should buy trotters from reputable supermarkets or food stores to ensure the quality of the trotters.

Prepare other ingredients
You peel the red onion, remove the garlic skin, wash them clean, and then chop them finely.
For fresh vegetables, discard wilted leaves, then soak the vegetables in diluted salt water for about 10 minutes, take them out and wash them again several times with clean water, then let them drain.
-
Marinate the pork leg
Put into a bowl of pork leg 1 teaspoon of Korean chili powder, 1 tablespoon of sugar, 1 tablespoon of salt, 1 teaspoon of monosodium glutamate, 1 tablespoon of fish sauce, 1 tablespoon of seasoning powder, 4 tablespoons of color oil, and half of the chopped onion and garlic.
Next, use a spoon to mix well and marinate for 30 minutes for the pork leg to absorb the spices evenly.
-
Roasted Peanuts
Place a pan on the stove, wait for the pan to heat up, then add 1 teaspoon of salt to the pan and add the peanuts to roast over medium heat so that the peanuts cook slowly.
Use chopsticks to stir continuously so the peanuts don’t burn. When the peanuts have a fragrant smell and the skins start to come off, turn off the heat and let them cool.
Then, rub the peanuts evenly and blow the peanut skins away, then place the peeled peanuts on a plate.

Make the Broth
Place a pot on the stove, add 2 tablespoons of annatto oil to the pot, wait for the oil to heat up, then add the remaining chopped onion and garlic to sauté until fragrant.
Next, add the marinated pork leg from earlier and stir well for about 2 minutes, then add 2.5 liters of filtered water to the pot.
When the water boils, season the pot with 3 tablespoons of sugar, 1 teaspoon of monosodium glutamate, 2 tablespoons of salt, and 1 tablespoon of seasoning powder, then cover the pot.
Simmer the pork leg for about 30 – 45 minutes until the pork is tender, and you can adjust the seasoning to suit your family’s taste, then turn off the heat.
