A guy i used to work with swore by tripe and sweet breads. He used to get them straight from the slaughterhouse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PortyJambo Posted June 6, 2022 Share Posted June 6, 2022 I can't stand tripe, only had it the once when my mum cooked it for my dad, but it was a definite never again after that. Not a fan of liver and kidneys either, but I do like sweetbreads and love a nice bit of ox tongue. I had a starter dish from Scran and Scallie a while ago that was ox tongue and it was delicious, far superior to the cold ox tongue for sandwiches that you can get from supermarkets.

I've never tried sweetbreads but i believe they are lovely but i suppose that depends on which ones you get. The neck glands are the ones my friend used to rave about. The thought of eating tongue makes me feel a bit squeamish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riccarton3 Posted June 6, 2022 Share Posted June 6, 2022 My mother used to make it but only 2 out of 5 ate it from recollection. What a stink! Perhaps the other 3 were on the veal cutlets, possibly liver, most certainly mince n tatties. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Konrad von Carstein Posted June 7, 2022 Share Posted June 7, 2022 There's a Polish dish, Flaki, which is tripe, had a wee taste of it in a restaurant in Warsaw. Very nice and presented very differently to the stinking boak inducing stuff my mum made, it was finely chopped in a rich gravy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The White Cockade Posted June 7, 2022 Share Posted June 7, 2022 White tripe in milk with potatoes and onions was brilliant when my mum made it 50 years ago but not really had it since except in the works canteen once but it had white sauce in it and was disgusting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ox tongue tacos at El Cartel are superb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
