Trotters
A clan's label
Trotters are feet, especially pig's feet prepared as food.
The term comes from trot—the gait between a walk and a run—since feet do the trotting.
In cooking, trotters are braised or stewed until the collagen-rich tissue becomes gelatinous: pickled pig's trotters, She simmered the trotters for hours.
The word also applies humorously to human feet: Get your trotters off the table.
