 Small pieces of bleached thick seam tripe stewed in milk with coarsely-cut onions and a herb, typically bay, but occasionally sage or parsley. Now usually served with mashed potato. (Francatelli 1852)  U.C.P. recipe card, 1980 Image: http://www.unitedcattleproducts.co.uk  Original Receipt in 'The Art of Cookery Made Easy and Refined' By John Mollard (Mollard 1802)BOILED TRIPE AND ONIONS. Cut a prepared double of tripe into slips, then peel and boil some Spanish or other onions in milk and water with a little salt, and when they are nearly done add the tripe and boil it gently twenty minutes. Serve it to table with the onions and a little of the liquor in a tureen. Serve up, likewise, in a sauceboat, some melted butter with a little mustard mixed with it, and (if approved) there may be added a table spoonful of vinegar. TRIPE AND ONIONS ANOTHER WAY. Put the pieces of tripe into a pan and cover with milk; then bake it till tender, serve it up in a bowl, and some onion sauce made in the same manner as for rabbits, and onion to be put into butter boats. This mode will be found to be the best.
