Trippa:
From Prov. Reggio Calabria.
(Beef Tripe, Calabrian Style)
1-Lb beef tripe
2 18 oz. cans of tomato sauce(or whole tomatos)
1/2 tsp. dried oregano
1/2 tsp.dried basil
3 cloves of garlic minced
1 tbs. parsley
Salt and pepper to taste
Hot Pepper, fresh or flakes
Cut fat off of tripe, and cut into one inch squares. This can be done either before or after you boil the tripe, but I always do it before. Put in med. size 4 qt. sauce pan, and fill pot with water. Bring to boil and cook 1 to 1 1/2 hrs. In the meantime make the sauce. Saute' onions and garlic in olive oil and add tomato sauce, oregano, and basil. Bring to boil and reduce to simmer. Drain and rinse tripe well. Add tripe to sauce and cook for 2-3 hours, or until tender. Last 1/2 hour of cooking, add the cut up celery, potato's. Cook until tender.

Trippa
( Another variation.)
Trippa was served in the winter. My father thought that a bowl of trippa with lots of hot pepper would cure whatever ailed you. The tripe is first boiled for about an hour and then cooled and sliced in strips.
Next fry some sliced onions, Italian peppers (the long ones) or even Bell peppers and garlic. Add the tripe, some red wine and enough peeled, chopped tomatoes to make a sauce. Simmer until the tripe is tender, about an hour. Add crushed red hot pepper as desired.
