What it is
A classic bistro dish where a pig's trotter is slow-cooked, deboned, pressed, and then grilled or pan-fried until crisp. Served with a tangy mustard vinaigrette (made with Dijon mustard, vinegar, and olive oil) and a simple green salad with lardons or braised cabbage.
Key ingredients
Pig's trotter, Dijon mustard, white wine vinegar, olive oil, shallots (small amount), herbs, green salad (e.g., frisée), lardons, salt, pepper.
Optional tweaks
Ensure the pig's trotter is not breaded or deep-fried in a high-carb coating. Confirm no sugar in the mustard sauce. Request a simple green salad or braised low-carb vegetables.
Watch out for
Shallots in the sauce contribute minimal carbs. Potential for hidden sugar in industrial mustard (use good quality Dijon). Ensure no bread or potatoes are served.
