What is Tripe?

Tripe — The stomach of a cow, pig, sheep or ox - ox having arguably the best flavour. Tripe is usually sold specially prepared or cleaned for cooking and is very much an acquired taste. Depending on which animal it comes from, it will have a different appearance ('honeycomb' tripe is reckoned by some to be the best for cooking). A popular way of cooking it in the UK is with onions.
