Directions

  1. For foot soaking, soak the feet in warm water. Gently comb the hair and remove the hair follicle between the two nails. Wash the feet thoroughly.
  2. Place them in a large pot with water, a drizzle of oil, garlic, half a lemon, and onion, and cook until the meat is easily separated.
  3. Remove the bones by shaking the carcass well to extract the marrow, and shred the meat. ≈ 3 min
  4. In a bowl, combine the egg yolks, the juice of the remaining half of the lemon, the flour, and half a glass of cold water. ≈ 4 min
  5. Gradually add the flour to the broth, stirring constantly, and add the meat. Continue to cook until the flour taste is gone. Season with salt and pepper.
  6. Serve with crushed garlic in vinegar. ≈ 2 min
