About Tripe

Tripe, the edible lining of a cow’s stomach, is a staple ingredient in various global cuisines, including Mexican menudo, French andouille, and Italian trippa alla romana. Nutritious and low in calories, tripe is packed with protein, vital for muscle repair and maintenance, and rich in essential minerals like zinc and selenium that support immune function. It also contains vitamin B12, important for energy production and red blood cell formation. With its chewy texture and mild flavor, tripe readily absorbs seasonings and works well in broths, stews, and spicy dishes. On the downside, tripe is relatively high in cholesterol, so moderation is advised for those with heart health concerns. While versatile and nutrient-dense, its unique texture and preparation process may not appeal to all. Tripe showcases the frugal, resourceful roots of culinary traditions worldwide, turning offcuts into culturally beloved dishes.
