Treat your ingredients with care...
- Tripe — Make sure to thoroughly clean the tripe before cooking by rinsing it under cold water and removing any excess fat or membranes.
- Pimentón — Use smoked paprika for an authentic Extremaduran flavor. Adjust the amount according to your preference for smokiness.
- Saffron — To enhance the saffron's flavor, soak the threads in a tablespoon of warm water for a few minutes before adding them to the stew.
Tips & Tricks
- For a richer flavor, you can add a splash of red wine to the stew during the cooking process.
- If you prefer a thicker sauce, you can mix a tablespoon of flour with a little water and add it to the stew. Cook for an additional 10 minutes to allow the sauce to thicken.
- Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. The flavors will continue to develop, making it even more delicious the next day.
