Pork Hock vs Ham Hock: Unraveling the Distinctions

Let us delve into the primary differences between pork hock and ham hock, and how they influence the art of cooking:

Pork Hock:

Derived from the lower leg of the pig, specifically the joint between the tibia and metatarsals, pork hock presents a collagen-rich, tough cut. To unlock its rich flavors and achieve tender perfection, slow cooking methods are essential. Often referred to as pork knuckle, this cut adds a hearty and gelatinous quality to soups, stews, and braised dishes.

Ham Hock:

Situated just above the pork hock, the ham hock originates from the upper portion of the pig's leg, closer to the meaty ham area. With a lower collagen content compared to pork hock, ham hock is frequently cured and smoked, resulting in a distinct flavor profile. A favorite for adding depth and smokiness to bean dishes, soups, and collard greens, this cut imparts a captivating allure to your culinary creations.

So there you have it, the epic tale of pork hock vs ham hock! Armed with this knowledge, you can now embark on your culinary adventures, confidently choosing the perfect cut to suit your dishes and infusing them with delightful flavors. Happy cooking!

the grand ham addiction choking my ovaries with bacon grease continues~

just a sketch i felt like pizzazzing.

THE TALE OF FOOD

BRAISED PORK HOCK - STEADY TRAINING

━

MASTER : Are you still working out, Braised Pork Hock? It feels like you’ve been shadowboxing for about two hours now…

BRAISED PORK HOCK : That’s right! I’ve already completed a whole round of the Art of the Five Animals, and was just about to use your… uhh… dumbbell? Hahaha! I quite like this dumbbell! It’s much better than lifting bricks, at least! I wish I had a stone lock, though! That’d be even better!

BRAISED PORK HOCK : There used to be this stone lock weighing about 130 pounds where I used to live. I’d lift it up and down tons of times each day!

BRAISED PORK HOCK : Oh…

BRAISED PORK HOCK : But you’re so thin and frail… These aren’t the sort of arms that can wave the flag of justice! Train with me, and we shall both become proper, gallant heroes!

MASTER : ...Umm, I’m pretty sure I never said I wanted to be a gallant hero.

BRAISED PORK HOCK : But you did say you want to be a Master of Kongsang deserving of the title, didn’t you? You’ll have to be stronger in both body and soul to protect your people!

BRAISED PORK HOCK : It’s time I make you a training plan…

BRAISED PORK HOCK : Tell you what… Spar with me now! That’ll give me a good idea on where we should start!

MASTER : Wait… Say what? What’s with that fighting stance?

BRAISED PORK HOCK : Don’t worry! I won’t go all out. That wouldn’t be fair at all, and I’d never do such a thing. Come on! Get into your stance, too! Show me what you’ve got!

━

FIGHT

━

MASTER : Haa… Haa… I’m pooped… How are you not out of breath…?

BRAISED PORK HOCK : Hahahahaha! Not bad! Looks like you can hold your ground against most foes!

BRAISED PORK HOCK : But there’s still lots of room for improvement. Your current state, for example, tells me you’ve got low endurance…

BRAISED PORK HOCK : I’ve got a pretty good grasp on you now, though! Once I’ve prepared a training plan, let’s get to it!

Potée Auvergnate (Ham Hock, Sausages and Vegetable Stew)

It is getting properly cold and we’ve had our first --if brief-- flurry of snow flakes on Friday. It is a weather for generous and comforting food, and French regional cuisine is full of these heart-warming stews. Like this tasty Potée Auvergnate, where the vegetables, braised in a smoky pork broth, take a delightful flavour. Don’t over-cook the cabbage, and you will have a wonderful lunch for your Sunday table! Have a good one!

Ingredients (serves 4):

1 small onion

8 whole cloves

4 bay leaves

4 sprigs Dried Thyme

1 (550-gram/-pound) (smoked) ham hock

2 (100-gram/3.5-ounce) smoked sausages

1/2 tablespoon whole black peppercorns

2 litres/8 cups water

1 litre/4 cups boiling water

half a large Savoy cabbage

a large potato

2 small or a dozen Baby Carrots

Peel onion, and then stick the cloves into it. Place at the bottom of a large pot; it will bring flavour to the stew. Add bay leaves and Dried Thyme to the pot, as well.

Place ham hock in the centre of the pot, and smoked sausages around it. Cover with water. Place the pot over a high flame on the stove, and bring to the boil. Once boiling, reduce heat to medium, cover with a lid, and simmer, about one hour and a half.

Cut the Savoy cabbage halve into four large pieces.

Remove the lid, and gently lift ham hock and sausages out of the pot and onto a plate. Set aside.

Stir in boiling water. Place cabbage pieces into the pot, submerging them as much as possible. Cover with the lid, and allow to both blanch and steam, 5 minutes.

Remove the lid, and carefully lift out cabbage onto a plate; set aside.

Peel and quarter the potato and add to the pot. Cover with the lid, and cook, 10 minutes.

If using small carrots, cut them into thick chunks. If using Baby Carrots, leave them whole (without their fronds).

Add carrots, and return cabbage, ham hock and smoked sausages to the pot. Cover with the lid, and cook, another 10 to 15 minutes, until potatoes and Carrots are tender.

Serve Potée Auvergnate hot, with good mustard, and a glass of robust red or light chilled white wine.

The hocks and the tail. The smoked neck bones. and longer can be sure how many there were. Prosciutto, pork and bean sausage, put the onions here. Garlic and onion paste. You know, the one that's the most flavorful. A fine base for the ham, but a good base for the cheese. We made this recipe in 8 o'clock on Sunday. We actually put it at noon, because I was just not hungry so I figured we needed to eat at 9 o'clock. The sausage was good for two reasons. 1. The bacon came out really well.

[z-h-i-e]

While the raw beef on rye with onions thing is, yes, odd to the outsiders (born and raised in Wisconsin, I would think it odd not to see that served at major holiday dinners, though I don’t partake myself), I would submit the following for the place of honor over butter burgers:

Pickled pig knuckles.

Discuss.

Weirdest food from every state in the US.
