  • Publication number: 20140154375
    Abstract: A method for processing tripe includes refining tripe with at least one bleaching agent and at least one alkaline material to improve tripe appearance, and contacting the treated tripe with an alkaline builder at a temperature of about 110° F. to 160° F. Tripe may be rinsed with cold water before packaging. The methods of processing tripe may provide tripe with enhanced appearance appealing to consumers, while increasing margin profits to meat packing plants due to higher tripe yield and lower operation cost.
