    1. Rinse the pork heart, then soak it for 2.5 hours in clean cold water. Don't forget to trim off the fat first.
    1. Once it's soaked, rinse the heart, put it in the slow-cooker pot, and cover it with water (it should be fully submerged); hot water is best to start. Set the "Stew/Braise" mode for 2.5 hours.
    1. Salt the heart and cook another half hour on the same setting.
    1. Take the cooked heart out of the broth, let it cool, and slice it (cut across the grain).
    1. Wash and peel the vegetables (potatoes, carrots, parsley root, and onion) and cut them into large pieces.
    1. Add oil to the slow-cooker pot, heat it on the "Sauté/Fry" mode (or "Multicook," or even "Bake"), add the prepped vegetables, and fry for 8 minutes, stirring.
    1. Cut the pickles into large pieces too (if they're big, remove the seeds), and quarter the tomatoes.
    1. Add the pickles, tomatoes, and sliced heart to the fried vegetables.
    1. Cook everything together on the "Stew/Braise" mode for half an hour.
    1. Stir chopped parsley into the finished dish. Enjoy!
