Yield 1 soup pot, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 lb tripe, cut into 1 1/2 by 1/8-inch strips
1 1/2 cups dried white navy beans
1/2 cup olive oil
1 cup coarsely chopped onion
1 cup coarsely chopped scraped carrot
1 cup coarsely chopped celery
1 cup coarsely chopped leek, including 2 inches of the green tops
1 cup coarsely chopped cabbage
4 medium firm ripe tomatoes, peeled, seeded and coarsely chopped
4 medium garlic cloves, peeled and coarsely chopped
1 teaspoon crumbled dry oregano
1 tablespoon salt
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1 quart chicken stock (fresh or canned)
1 cup coarsely chopped fresh spinach
2 medium boiling potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch dice
2 tablespoons tomato paste

Steps:

  • Place tripe in a large saucepan and add enough cold water to cover it by at least 2 inches.
  • Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low and simmer partially covered for 1 1/2 hours. Drain the tripe in a sieve and set aside.
  • Meanwhile, combine the beans and 3 qts. of water in a heavy saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat.
  • Boil briskly for 2 minutes, remove the pan from the heat, and let the beans soak for 1 hour. Pour off the soaking water and set the beans aside.
  • In a heavy 6-8 quart casserole, heat the oil over moderate heat until a light haze forms above it. Add the onions, carrots, celery, leeks, and cabbage.
  • Stir well, cover the casserole, and simmer over low heat for 15 minutes, or until the vegetables are soft but not brown.
  • Add the tripe, beans, tomatoes, garlic, oregano, salt, pepper, and chicken stock and, stirring frequently, bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to low and simmer partially covered for 1 hour.
  • Then stir in the spinach, potatoes and tomato paste, and continue to simmer for about 20 minutes longer, or until the beans and potatoes are tender but not falling apart.
  • Taste for seasoning and serve at once from a heated tureen or soup plates.

This soup was a bit too time-consuming to make. I would not recommend it for a weeknight meal.

This soup was a bit too bland for my taste. I would recommend adding more spices next time.

This soup was a bit too heavy for my taste. The tripe was a bit too chewy and the soup was overall a bit bland. I would not recommend this recipe.

I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed this soup. The tripe was not as gamey as I expected and the white beans and vegetables added a lot of flavor. I will definitely be making this again.
