How to cook beef tripe
The rumen is the first section of a cow's stomach, the largest, "cleanest" and most delicate part of it. Beef tripe is beneficial - it supports the health of the mucous membranes and the digestive system, thanks to the content of B vitamins. Also, due to the lack of carbohydrates, consumption of scars does not increase blood glucose levels, and therefore is suitable for diabetics. Before eating, the scar must be boiled.
1. Most stores sell already peeled tripe, white, completely clean and without a strong odor. Such a scar does not need to be soaked - wash it and immediately start cooking.
2. Put the tripe in hot water and after boiling, boil for 5 minutes, removing the foam. A spacious saucepan is best suited, since the scar in the water diverges in all directions. Or, you can tie it with food thread.
3. Cover the scar with a lid and cook over low heat, covering with a lid, for 3.5-4 hours.
