When selecting pork trotters (pig's feet), the key is to look for ones with smooth, firm skin and a light pink color, indicating freshness. Avoid trotters with dark spots or an overly strong odor, as these could be signs of poor quality or age. Ideally, the skin should feel slightly elastic when pressed. For cooking purposes, larger trotters tend to have more collagen and fat, which make for richer soups and stews, while smaller trotters are often leaner and better for grilling or braising.
