Please send me a recipe for pickled tripe.
Thank you!
L
Dear L (Lloyd? or Liz?),
It's hard to tell from your e-mail whether you want a recipe for cooking pickled tripe
or whether you want a recipe for how to pickle tripe. No matter, because the recipes below
tell how to do both.
Phaed
Pickled Tripe
Ingredients :
2 lb Honeycomb tripe, cut into 4-inch squares
2 x Carrots
1 x Yellow onion
1 x Bay leaf
Salt & pepper to taste
1 cup White cider vinegar
Method :
Place the tripe in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil and
then drain. Rinse with cold water and cover with fresh water a second time.
Add the remaining ingredients except the vinegar. Cover the pan and simmer
until the tripe is tender, about 2 hours. Drain, reserving 1 cup of the
broth, and add the broth and vinegar to the tripe. Place in plastic container
and store in the refrigerator overnight.
-----
Pan Fried Pickled Tripe Variation 1:
The Parker House in Boston uses a method very close to this
one. Drain and rinse the pickled tripe and season each piece with salt and
pepper. Sprinkle with flour and then dribble some olive oil on each piece.
Sprinkle bread crumbs on each and broil slowly for a few minutes so that
the crumbs are browned. You might wish to add some garlic and perhaps thyme
to the bread crumbs. Serve with a mustard gravy.
Mustard Gravy:
1 tbl Minced yellow onion
2 tbl Butter
2 tbl Cider vinegar
2 tsp Dry mustard mixed with
1 tbl Water
1 cup Brown gravy
Mustard Gravy: Saute the onion in the butter until brown. Add the remaining
ingredients and simmer for 5 minutes. Serve with the pickled tripe.
-----
Pan Fried Pickled Tripe Variation 2:
Rinse the pickled tripe and dry with paper towels. Dip in beaten
egg. Dredge in seasoned flour and pan-fry in a bit of butter until brown on
both sides.
Along with a bowl of Boston Black Bean Soup or some Boston Baked Beans, you
have a complete and filling meal.

Hello Knud,
Didn't have much luck, just the one below. Smoked goose breast is usually
not the main part of a recipe; it's usually used for flavoring, like bacon is
used in many recipes.

1 loaf black bread (ideally a dark, tangy bread or a multi-grain one)
200 grams/7 ounces smoked goose breast, cut in cubes
10 lettuce leaves (you can use different kinds of lettuce)
12 asparagus stalks, poached and cut in quarters
12 fresh figs, cut in quarters
For the sauce:
--------------
3/4 Tablespoon olive oil
1/4 cup wine vinegar

Hi uncle!!
thanks for the info about the meat curing sites!!!
Do you have a recipe for barbecue sauce?
I tasted, about 12 years ago, a recipe (which I lost) that had honey,
tomatoes, it dark, rich, and wonderful and made with ordinary spices
and ingredients.
I believe it could be use for marinating beef or chicken and then smoking
the meat, or make beef jerkys.
Is there a barbecue sauce for fish?
Do you need any information?
Talk to you later!!!
