FILIPINO MENUDO



Filipino Menudo image

Comfort food Filipino style! This is one of my husband's favourite Filipino dishes. I make this in big batches because it freezes well, and it tastes better the longer you keep it. It can stay for up to 2 weeks in the freezer. This can also be cooked in a slow cooker like the usual slow cooker stew.

1 medium red bell pepper, diced
1 medium green bell pepper, diced
500 ml tomato sauce

AUTHENTIC SUNDAY MENUDO



Authentic Sunday Menudo image

The original Mexicancomfort food... great to nurse a hongover after you celebrate too much on Saturday nights or to just enjoy anytime. We make this for the day after all of our parties, weddings, etc. You'll love it... WARNING: it is a tad bit on the spicy side, but not too bad! If you can eat at most mexican food restaurants without whining, this will be fine for you. If you think mild salsa is hot, maybe try this w/o the pequins and the cayenne. Please review! :)

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of meat. Beef cheek, oxtail, and tripe are traditional choices for menudo, but you can also use other cuts of beef, such as flank steak or brisket.
  • Soak the meat overnight in a vinegar solution. This will help to tenderize the meat and remove any impurities.
  • Brown the meat in a large pot or Dutch oven. This will help to develop the flavor of the meat and prevent it from sticking to the pot.
  • Add the vegetables and spices. The traditional vegetables for menudo include hominy, onions, garlic, and tomatoes. You can also add other vegetables, such as carrots, celery, and potatoes.
  • Simmer the menudo for several hours, or until the meat is tender. The longer you simmer the menudo, the more flavorful it will be.
  • Serve the menudo hot, with your favorite toppings. Traditional toppings for menudo include chopped cilantro, diced onions, and lime wedges.

Conclusion:

Menudo is a delicious and hearty soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is also a great way to use up leftover beef. With a little planning and effort, you can easily make a delicious pot of menudo at home. So next time you are looking for a comforting and flavorful soup, give menudo a try.
