It's delicious. When it comes to three hooves, you have to mention the legendary Shen Wansan. Shen Wansan, formerly known as Shen Fu, moved from Nanxun, Huzhou to Dongtuo, Zhouzhuang with his father in the mid-Yuan Dynasty. Shen Wansan farmed for a living, and later relied on Zhouzhuang's unique geographical advantages to carry out overseas trade activities. A few years later, Shen Wansan quickly became the richest man in Jiangnan with "huge assets and land all over the world". At the request of Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, one third of the Nanjing city wall was built, which was famous for a while. There are many guests in Shenfu, and they are often full of friends. Every time we entertain guests, there must be a dish, that is braised hooves. After several hours of stewing, this hoof is ruddy in color and full of fragrance ... When people follow suit, it becomes a famous dish in Zhouzhuang, called "Wan San Hu Fu". After hundreds of years of circulation, Wanshou Mountain has become the main course of Zhouzhuang people's festivals and wedding banquets, which means reunion and is also an excellent dish for entertaining guests.

Wansanhoof is made of exquisite materials, selected pig hind legs with moderate fatness as raw materials, mixed ingredients, including fennel, cinnamon, clove and other 12 herbs, and mixed with water. After a day and a night of simmering or steaming, the heat will pass several times, mainly with slow fire. The whole cooked hoof is steaming, bright red in color, full in shape and full of fragrance. Wanshan Khufu's meat is crisp and rotten, and it melts in the mouth. The gravy is fragrant, fat but not greasy, crisp but not rotten, and the skin and fat are fresh, sweet and salty, which is really delicious.

Tip: the way to eat three hooves is more unique. Take a thin bone from two long bones that run through the whole pig's trotters and gently pull it out, and the hoof shape will not move; With the bone as a knife, the hoof is well scratched where it is lightly crossed. This is a difficult problem when Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang took an examination of Shen Wansan. Shen Wansan had a brainwave and took this bone out as a knife to solve the problem, so Zhu Yuanzhang said, "Just call it a bone knife." . Since then, it has become a traditional way of eating for generations.
