Jellied jelly made from beef and pork feet

I suggest making jellied meat from beef and pork legs. This jellied meat freezes perfectly, without gelatin powder. The legs and hooves contain a sufficient amount of collagen necessary for the jellied meat to set properly, be firm and cut with a knife. The broth is very rich and transparent, and the meat is tender and soft. The main thing is to observe the proportions and cooking time. The jellied meat will take 7-8 hours to prepare. Add to this time 8-10 hours for soaking the hooves and 5-6 hours for hardening.
