2. To make the jellied meat tasty, you need to add the parts that contain meat. Every housewife has her own recipe. You can take pork hooves or shank and chicken thighs. For a 5 liter saucepan – 2 hooves or 1 shank + 2-3 thighs.

4. For transparency, you also need to collect the foam. And collect it constantly as it appears. Or there is a life hack – put parchment paper in the pan instead of the lid.
