Cut the tripe and into thin julienne. Sauté onion and sage with lard and butter in a pot. When the onions are wilted (not brown), add the tripe. Sauté for 5 mins. And then add the chopped carrot and celery. Add the vegetable broth and cook for 3-4 hours or until the tripe is cooked. Place a slice of bread into a rimmed soup plate and pour over the soup.
Serve grated Parmigiano on the side and offer freshly ground pepper.
Note:
In other versions it is possible to add sliced potatoes and beans (fagioli bianchi di Spagna would be preferable). Beans are best when cooked separately then and added to the soup. |
