Postopek
Korak za korakom
- 1
Rinse the beef tripe thoroughly under cold running water, then cut it into 1-inch pieces.
Približno 5 min
Kuharjeva opomba: Rinsing well helps remove any impurities and strong odors from the tripe.
- 2
Place the cleaned tripe in a large pot with the broth onion, broth garlic, bay leaf, and broth salt.
- 3
Add enough water to cover the tripe by at least 2 inches.
- 4
Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 3 hours, or until the tripe is very tender.
Približno 3 h
Kuharjeva opomba: The tripe should be easily pierced with a fork.

While the tripe simmers, prepare the chili sauce. Place the guajillo chilis and ancho chilis in a small saucepan and cover with water.

Add enough fresh water to the blender to just cover the chilis. Blend until completely smooth.
Približno 3 min
Kuharjeva opomba: Add water gradually to achieve a thick, pourable consistency.

Pour the blended chili sauce through a fine-mesh sieve directly into the pot with the tripe and broth, pressing firmly on the solids to extract all liquid.
Približno 5 min
Kuharjeva opomba: Straining the sauce ensures a smooth, lump-free menudo.
- 11
Stir the chili sauce into the tripe and broth. Bring the soup back to a gentle simmer and cook for another 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Približno 30 min
Kuharjeva opomba: Taste and adjust salt if needed after the sauce has cooked in.

Serve the menudo hot, garnished with diced onion, chopped cilantro, lime wedges, and a sprinkle of crushed red pepper if desired.
