Trippa alla Fiorentina (tripe Florentine style)

Trippa alla Fiorentina is a traditional Tuscan dish in which tender beef tripe is cut into thin strips and braised in an aromatic sauce of tomatoes, onions, celery and carrots. A touch of butter and plenty of freshly grated Parmesan provide a delicate creaminess and melting texture. The sauce combines hearty umami notes, sweetness from the vegetables and tomato and subtle herbal accents. As a classic of Florentine cuisine, this dish stands for down-to-earth enjoyment that is both rustic and elegant. Served with toasted bread and parmesan - an Italian experience for connoisseurs.
