Stew a hock in the traditional way by first browning it in oil and then adding the chopped vegetables. Add a generous amount of Mencía wine that we will allow to evaporate completely. Cover up to half of the meat with broth and let it stew slowly for 2 hours.
When the meat is tender, we separate it and strain the sauce to which we will add the Cuevas Chef garnish, that is, a selection of forest products (chestnuts, pine nuts, plums and wild mushrooms) that will give the sauce a very special flavour and will be the ideal accompaniment to the meat.
