Visit a typical Filipino corner carinderia and you’ll often find Menudo. Our Filipino Menudo recipe may owe its name and influence from Spanish origins, but there are several ways of preparing menudo, in terms of ingredients, preparation and taste.
A typical Filipino Menudo recipe leans towards more colorful output, thanks to tomato sauce and atsuete, but here I am not using either of the two. And instead of a spicy taste, this preparation lean towards the sweet, as you’ll note the absence of spicy ingredients.
Preparation may be a bit more labor-intensive than others, with the slicing, chopping and dicing, but the output is one certified element of a hearty meal.
