What is in menudo?!
Answers: I dunno if this is the right spelling for "menudo" but just curious...all i know it is sort of a soup, but what is in the stuff?
Menudo is a wonderfully aromatic soup made of tripe, hominy and chili, and is stewed for hours with garlic and other spices. the broth is rich, red, papery, and glistens with fat. It stimulates the senses, arms the insides, and clears the head. Menudo is served in big open bowls brought to the table steaming and fiery. It is usually eaten in the wee hours after a night out on the town and widely proclaimed to be an antidote for hangovers. Mexicans brag about menudo's goodness, about how the hot broth with its medicinal condiments, particularly the chili, replenishes vitamins A and C, soothes the stomach, and stimulates the gastric juices to overcome any loss of appetite. Unfortunately, unlike the enchilada, taco, and tamale, menudo has not become a part of the popular Tex-Mex cuisine. Wherever there's a Mexican community, there's menudo and San Marcos is no exception. A hearty tripe soup as it is prepared in the north of Mexico, this is especially recommended as a cure for hangovers. It is always made on New Year's morning.
3 pounds tripe
3 pounds nixtamal (hominy) frozen, not canned
3 pounds pigs feet (not calves) cut into quarters
1 large onion diced
1 bunch green onion cut up in 1/4" pieces
1 bunch of cilantro chopped
2 tablespoons Oregano
1 tablespoon black pepper
1 tablespoon red pepper flakes
1 head of garlic
2 tablespoons salt
Wash tripe thoroughly, remove excess fat and cut into bite sized pieces, wash nixtamal and pigs feet well and combine all ingredient in a large pot with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil and simmer slowly until corn opens and is cooked (not overcooked). Skim off grease. It is best if you can refrigerate it in order to remove all grease.
Serve with fresh cilantro, chopped green onion, chiltepin, limon
hominy, spices n meat

MENUDO is a delicious spanish dish, that contains some type of animal skin a nd soup. It can be served with vegetables and tortillas. you should try it sometime, you'll love it!!!
Menudo is a soup made with hominy, tripe, and some people add beef. It can be white, or red. The red one has chili in it, but lots of people add ground red chili to the white one. It is usually served with the following on the side, so you can add as much or as little as you like: chopped onions, oregano, lemon/lime (to squeeze into the broth), ground chili. Pozole is another similar soup made with pork or chicken, or both, and hominy. People usually eat pozole with chopped onions, oregano, raddish, and cabbage or lettuce, lemon or lime. They are both delicious.
Mainly pig belly (the stomach) and pig feet, boiled for hours with herbs and spices. Menudo is the Mexican name.
In Greece they call it patsa, and you add a little vinegar before you eat it. If you let it cool, it becomes like jello.
You eat it hot and spicy, and it's good for your joints. It's a "winter" food.
Menudo is basically pigs feet in a bowl of red chile and posole. It's POSOLE not hominy. Use the word posole, trust me you'll sound more knowledgeable. I come from a huge chicano family so yeah....
