Here is another example of how the nutritious, the medicinal, and the flavouful are so often joined in Chinese cuisine. Pig’s trotter and chicken are both believed to be good for the blood and circulation. Supposedly also endowed with curative powers they are prescribed for women after childbirth. I say that the warming richness of this stew is good for whatever may ail you including hunger. It can be made ahead of time as it reheats perfectly.
