Preparation of Tripe

  1. 1

    Clean the Tripe

    Thoroughly clean the beef tripe under cold running water, then chop it into bite-sized pieces.

    In a large pot, add the chopped tripe and cover it with water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for about 1.5 to 2 hours until tender.
