Brilio.net - Tripe is the offal of livestock such as cows or goats located in the stomach. This offal has a chewy texture with a rough surface like a towel. Despite its rough texture, tripe has a savory taste after being cooked.

Tripe is often processed into various dishes such as stir-fries, oseng mercon , soup, soto, or fried rice toppings. In addition to being cooked with spices and herbs, tripe can also be fried. Fried tripe is one of the favorite dishes of many people.

However, the process of processing tripe is not as easy as cooking meat. Newly purchased tripe is usually still black and very dirty. The appearance of tripe like this makes many people reluctant to consume it.

Therefore, cleaning tripe is an important step to increase appetite. In addition to affecting its appearance, cleaning tripe also helps remove unpleasant odors that stick to it. The outer part of tripe, which has a towel-like texture, often stores dirt. If left untreated, the dirt can affect the smell of the tripe after processing.

To clean tripe, there are various ways that can be done. One of the most common is to soak the tripe in hot water. There are also those who soak the tripe in water that has been given salt, lime juice, or vinegar.

Some of these kitchen ingredients can indeed make the cleaning process easier. But please note that this method tends to be time consuming because the tripe must be soaked for 15-30 minutes. It is no wonder that many people choose other methods such as those used by TikTok user @fajarlele.

Through one of his uploads, the TikTok content creator chose to use other methods and ingredients. Reported by BrilioFood from TikTok @fajarlele on Saturday (9/28), he admitted to using betel lime. But not by soaking it, this betel lime is simply smeared evenly on the beef tripe.

After that, squeeze it a little while rubbing it until the whiting lime is absorbed into the rough surface of the beef tripe. If so, rub or scrape the tripe using a spoon. This process will make the surface of the tripe whiter and cleaner, you know.
