Pig’s Feet Soup

Must Try

There is something so very comforting about Pig’s Feet Soup. Stories I have heard say that this was a dish new mom’s would be served to cleans their bodies and prepare them for motherhood.

I love this version with the familiar flavors of Japanese and Okinawan ingredients of miso, kombu and daikon.
