Brilio.net - Beef offal is an alternative side dish that is often consumed besides beef. Beef tripe is one type of offal that is often processed into dishes such as soto and bakso. The tripe part that comes from the stomach wall of the cow has a thick and hard texture characteristic.
Beef tripe processing requires special techniques because of its hard and thick texture. The tripe boiling process generally takes quite a long time to get a soft texture. The use of a pressure cooker is an alternative to speed up the tripe tenderization process.
A practical method of beef tripe tenderization has been found as an alternative solution. The tenderization process can be done by boiling using a regular pan for 12 minutes. This efficient tripe tenderization technique was introduced through YouTube content by the Dytan Daily account.
Before boiling, beef tripe needs to be marinated with one kitchen ingredient. Reported by BrilioFood from YouTube Dytan Daily on Thursday (11/14), the kitchen ingredient is wheat flour. Then prepare the tripe that has been washed clean in a container.
To be safer, use gloves to prevent bad odors from sticking. After that, sprinkle the tripe with enough flour. Stir and knead using your hands so that the flour is evenly distributed and absorbed.

After kneading, let it sit for 15 minutes. The use of this flour can indeed make beef tripe softer. In addition, the unpleasant odor of the tripe can also be removed.
Once it has been left, wash the tripe under running water. Clean it while rubbing it until the flour layer is gone. Then drain and set aside first.

Next, prepare water in a pan. You can use a regular pan in the kitchen. Then put the clean tripe into the pan. Add a handful of rice and two lime leaves. Not only will it soften quickly, the addition of these two kitchen ingredients will also help eliminate the unpleasant odor of the tripe.

When boiled, cover the pan and cook for 5 minutes. Then turn off the stove and let it sit for 30 minutes with the pan covered. If so, turn the stove back on and boil for 7 minutes.

After boiling, the texture of the rice will be soft and slightly broken. This indicates that the beef tripe is also tender and perfectly cooked. Next, drain the tripe and wash it again until clean to remove any remaining rice that sticks to it.
Now, the boiled tripe is ready to be processed into various menus. You can cut the tripe to make it easier to cook. Its soft texture and delicious aroma will make the dish more delicious.
