What is Head and trotter broth (small)?
Head and trotter broth (small) is a modest serving of the savoury liquid made by slowly simmering an animal’s head and feet, commonly those of a sheep or goat. Compared with a full bowl of head-and-trotter soup, it is a smaller, simpler portion of broth, with a rich flavour and sometimes a lightly gelatinous texture.
In Turkey it is usually served hot, often sharpened with lemon, garlic or vinegar, as a soup or alongside a meal. It provides protein, with 6.5 g per 100 g, while remaining low in carbohydrates. For a lighter cup, skim off any fat that settles on top; lemon and fresh herbs make a bright counterpoint to its savouriness.
