Method

1

Place the pork knuckle, chicken breast, onion, carrot, bay leaf, peppercorns, and salt into a pot.

2

Cover with cold water and bring to a boil. Once boiling, cover with a lid and simmer for 3.5 hours.

3

Remove the cooked meat, discard the skin, and debone. Shred the meat into fibers, then mix in the minced garlic and paprika.

4

Strain the broth into a bowl, stir in the gelatin, and let it bloom for 10 minutes.

5

Pour the broth into the meat mixture and combine thoroughly.

6

Use a plastic bottle as a mold—cut off the neck, pack the mixture in tightly, and press it down.

7

Refrigerate overnight.
