Haitian Cuisine: Let’s make a delicious "pye kochon" stew for this weekend!

"Pig’s trotter" stew is an iconic dish of Haitian gastronomy, appreciated for its rich flavors and melting texture.

This stew is prepared from carefully cleaned pig’s trotters, marinated with local spices such as garlic, chili pepper, thyme and cloves, then slowly braised until tender and a creamy sauce is obtained. Vegetables such as carrots and potatoes are often added, as well as a spicy tomato sauce that enhances the dish.


Accompanied by white rice, sticky rice or even weighed bananas, pig’s trotter stew is a real explosion of flavors that brings families together around a generous and friendly meal.
