Menudo is a popular "caldo", or soup, in Mexico that includes as a main component beef tripe. If you don't know what that is, it is the meat from a cow's stomach. Now it might come as a shock to you, but it can actually be very delicious if you prepare it the right way, and that is my goal with this recipe today! Like in many cultures, Menudo's origins are rooted in the fact that offal was considered a garbage cut and was thus very cheap. This made it a good source of protein for the masses.
