Must be my issue as well since all four grandparents were from DV8's home land.
i felt sufficiently inspired by this thread to make "mofongo" today: baked rulos blended with lots of garlic, served with fish sauce flavoured vegetable broth and coleslaw with basil yogurt dressing. followed by coconut angel food cake, apple custard pie and anzac biscuits.
Preach. That's good eatin'. Chitlins, cows feet, pigs feet, mondongo, all great stuff. And don't forget morcilla.
Kill me now, lol
Leo does like the feet, his mother used to make them. Never tried it, never will. I have had ox/cow tail, not bad. Was a favorite of his, used to be cheap, not now
Haven't you noticed? Nothing that has to do with animals is cheap any more. Remember back when wings weren't a thing? Gizzards?
The stuff that used to get fed to the dogs now gets good money. I'm getting closer and closer to weaning myself off of meat.
Imagine, many Dominican will say the same thing about pancake. What do they see in that thing and what are the **** they put for the pancake to grow on hot surface. :cross-eye Nothing is better than a mangu with three strike (tres golpes) salami, eggs and cheese or fried green (frito verde) with a medium well steak or longaniza.:lick:
I used to buy Beef Tongue for 50 cents; then it doubled in value to $1.00.
My kids hated it because no other kids would trade sandwiches with them at school.
To reminisce I almost bought one the other day at the SOBEYS store... $34.98 ... for the thing. I bought a huge ham 12 pounds and precooked instead.
Yup, it is getting expensive to eat carne.

I feel for you. If cleaned and prepared correctly, they are some of the finest vittles on god's green earth.
i had to google how maw as well. my, what educational thread it turned out to be. anyways, the stuff looks delish. but i like haggis so no wonder. i also eat chikin feet, pig's feet and variety of assorted entrails. not the brain, lungs or kidneys. but i'd try them con gusto if made by someone who knows how to prepare them.
chicken feet add a lusciousness to soup. Now I think we use the Japanese word umami to describe a certain depth of flavor. and with chicken feet one has the added benefit of being able to pick one's teeth!
Gonna have to think more than twice, in fact, I already have and not a chance. My YOLO moment steered me away from it, hallelujah!
When we prepar Morcilla, we always like to joke about the percentage of poop that needs to be mixed with the blood to give it it's great taste.
Some folks like to add rice and hot sauce too.
Gives you a nice "Pepper teeth" smile when you eat it. I love that stuff.
