Ingredients:

• 2 lbs (about 1 kg) tripe (cleaned and cut into small pieces)
• 1 onion (diced)
• 3 cloves garlic (minced)
• 1 can (14 oz) hominy (drained and rinsed)

• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

1. In a large pot, combine the tripe, diced onion, minced garlic, bay leaf, oregano, cumin, and enough water to cover everything.
2. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 2-3 hours or until the tripe is tender.
3. Once the tripe is tender, add the diced tomatoes, jalapeño pepper (if using), and drained hominy to the pot.
4. Continue to simmer the soup for another 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
5. Season the menudo with salt and pepper to taste.
6. Serve the menudo hot, garnished with lime wedges, chopped cilantro, and sliced radishes on the side. Enjoy with warm tortillas or crusty bread.
