The trotters have landed...

..Hurrah! A small black bag arrived on the dock yesterday with THREE lovely little trotters inside. I was so pleased. Jose and Esperanza had tracked then down in the city and they came all that way(5 hours) to enable me to make my pork pie...

I guess I may have been able to get them closer but I am delighted that my ordering actually worked. Not so much joy with the belly of pork though. Does anyone know the Spanish translation for that cut? The patas are resting in the freezer until I am ready to attempt the masterpiece, in a day or two.
