Tripa 'd Muncalè - Via Alba 19 Moncalieri (To) Italy

Stuffed tripe


Ingredients

Tripe, minced meat, parsley, rosemary, 1 onion, white wine, garlic, Parmesan cheese, nutmeg, eggs, bread, milk.


Preparation

This recipe requires the part of the tripe, sometimes called “buco di vespa” (wasp hole), which makes a natural pouch.

Stuff the tripe with a filling made of minced meat, parsley, garlic, grated Parmesan cheese, nutmeg, eggs and milk-soaked bread. Stitch the tripe pouch, then brown it in a pot with some rosemary, some garlic and some chopped onion.

Once the tripe pouch is browned, add the tomato puree and the wine, then simmer until done.

A different version of the filling may be prepared with the leftovers commonly used for meat balls or meat loaves, namely a mix of minced meat, boiled and well drained spinach, eggs, grated Parmesan cheese, nutmeg and possibly a tablespoon of cream.
