I have been making this dish for Christmas Eve for about 17 years. I did skip a year and got yelled at by the elders who "waited all year" to eat it. It is rich and spicy and very much my tastes. I hope you enjoy.

1/2 teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

Tips:

  • To properly clean the tripe, use a combination of salt, vinegar, and water. This will help to remove any impurities and unpleasant odors.
  • When boiling the tripe, add aromatics such as garlic, onion, celery, and bay leaves to infuse it with flavor.
  • Simmer the tripe for at least 2 hours, or until it is tender. This will help to break down the connective tissue and make it more palatable.
  • For a richer flavor, brown the tripe in a pan before adding it to the pot. This will create a Maillard reaction, which will add depth of flavor.
  • Feel free to adjust the spices and seasonings in the recipe to suit your own taste preferences.
