Language: Italian

Description: Pig's trotters and stuffed pig's trotters made in Modena in Emilia-Romagna since 1511. The pig's foot shaped casing is stuffed with pork meat and spices and often served with lentils or mashed potatoes and salsa verde. The Negroni brand, commonly available in the UK, is pre-cooked, giving it a longer shelf-life. Traditionally it is served as a main course on New Year's Day.
