Ingredients
- 2 lb Beef tripe
- 3 Carrots
- 1 Parsnip
- 2 stalks Celery
- 1 Onion
- 3 tbsp Butter
- 2 tbsp All-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp Marjoram
Steps
- Simmer the cleaned tripe 90 minutes until tender; slice into thin ribbons.
- Make a golden vegetable broth with the carrots, parsnip, celery, and onion; strain.
- Thicken the broth lightly with a butter-flour roux — flaki should be velvety, not thick.
- Add the tripe ribbons and simmer 20 minutes so they drink up the flavor.
- Season boldly with marjoram, salt, and black pepper; marjoram is the soul of flaki.
- Serve with a spoonful of sour cream and dark bread; skeptics become converts.
