Preparation
- Step 1
Thoroughly rinse the tripe under cold running water. Fill a large bowl with 6 cups ice water and add 2 tablespoons of the vinegar. Place the tripe in the bowl and soak for 30 minutes. Remove from the water, pat dry and cut into 1-inch cubes.
- Step 2
In a large stockpot, combine the tripe, 5 bay leaves, pepper flakes, thyme, oregano, 1 gallon (16 cups) water and the remaining 1 cup vinegar. Bring to a boil over high heat and cook at a full boil for 1 hour. Remove from the heat and let cool. Drain the tripe, rinse in cold water and reserve.
- Step 3
In another large stockpot over high heat, combine the oil, onions, tomatoes, garlic, parsley and remaining 2 bay leaves. Stir and cook for 5 minutes. Add the stock, reserved tripe, garbanzo beans, white navy beans and turnips, and bring to a boil. Lower the heat, cover and simmer for 1 hour.
- Step 4
Add the carrots, cabbage and rice. Recover and simmer for another hour. Add the chorizo, morcilla, cheese and basil. Stir and simmer 10 minutes. Ladle into bowls and serve.
