Jellied Pork

== Description ==
In Romanian: Piftie de porc. The tastiest pork jelly is made out of pork feet and ears. You can use beef feet or a mixture of pork and beef feet.
== Ingredients ==
* 3 lbs / 1,5 kg pork feet and/or head
* 1 onion
* 2 carrots
* 1 parsnip
* 1 parsley root
* 1 celery root
* 2 bay leaves
* 3 - 4 juniper berries
* 3 - 4 garlic cloves
* salt
== Directions ==
# Wash and clean the feet and/or head. If hairy, singe. Split the feet in two lengthwise and break the head with the mallet.
# Place in a large pot and cover with water so that there are 3 - 4 inches of water above the pork pieces. Boil over slow to medium heat. Remove the foam as it forms. Then add salt, vegetables, bay leaves and juniper berries.
# Cover the pot almost completely. Boil until the meat falls off the bones. Remove the bones and place the meat on the bottom of one or several deep plates.
# Chop the garlic, add some salt and mix with the meat broth. Strain and then pour on top of the meat in plates. Refrigerate so that it gels.
# To obtain a nice, clear jelly you have to boil slowly, with the pot almost covered.
