The word "menudo" in Mexico can mean the raw stomach meat as well as the stew. It is a traditional Mexican dish. It is a spicy soup made with tripe (the small intestines rather than the stomach). Typical ingredients added to menudo are dried oregano, ground chile flakes, lime juice, fresh cilantro, and chopped onion.

"Menudo" also refers to an entirely different dish made in the Philippines. This dish, in contrast, is made of garlic, onions, diced pork chops, pork liver, diced potato, green bell peppers, soy sauce and tomato sauce, and seasoned with salt and pepper while it is cooked. Filipino menudo will usually contain tripe though common variants will include chickpeas, red bell peppers, and raisins.

Menudo also means "small change". It is unknown if the soup came to be known as such since it was left-over, or if the "small change" left on the table for the server was like the soup.

The soup menudo is a traditional Mexican dish; a spicy soup made with tripe.

in the philippines, its made from tomato paste or sauce so it has an orange color, and it has garbanzo beans (chick peas), and some meat, carrots, green peas, and the sauce is kinda creamy , so i think it has cornstarch. since everyone who answered before me said its mexican, i guess it is a spanish cuisine since we've been colonized by spain for over 300 yrs..=)

MENUDO
Aromatic soup boasts special qualities

Every culture has great restorative stew of humble origin and ingredients.

The Hungarians and other Central Europeans have their cabbage soup. The French have their potage St. Germain. The Greeks have their white bean soup and the Mexicans have their menudo.

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.
