Boiling Meat, Tripe, Vegetables

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Plunge the meat into boiling water to cover it completely.

  2. Reduce heat to simmer gently, avoiding a rolling boil.

  3. Remove any scum that rises to the surface.

  4. If using salted meat, soak it in tepid water to draw out excess salt.

  5. Wipe the meat, weigh it, and secure it with string before boiling.
