Correct. Could it be possible that the ear is NOT cartilaginous but rather
constructed of the protein in the collagen group? Since these proteins are by
nature fibrous and break down into gelatin and other solids with prolonged
cooking, it would explain why my pigs ears turn to gelatin. It does not ,
however, explain why your stay crunchy. :-(
