    I completely agree. Why not. I have had requests for menudo from friends and I don’t like siting over the stove for hours and prep of the tripe etc. I have taken two large cans (the big big cans) of Juanita’s Menudo and doctored it up and served and no one knew any different. They were impressed and loved it. 🤣. Plus you are right, I’m single and being able to make enough for just two servings is nice.

    I get the Juanita's menudo all the time and I always hate having to dig out the bottom of the can... I found that sitting it on the kitchen counter in the sunlight for a few minutes and then shaking the daylights out of it helps to get it out completely. I also add a bay leaf/garlic/onion to mine as well and some chipotle powder, but I also do add more hominy since I love it so much!!!

    • @jeanettemoreno6883
      @jeanettemoreno6883 ปีที่แล้ว

    • @HDBee
      @HDBee ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I put the can on the low burner on the lowest setting, flip it every 10 seconds top to bottom. When it sounds like it’s all turned to liquid when you shake it, it’s ready to open. Don’t put it on the burner, go do something else and forget about it or you will be trying to clean the red stain off of everything in your kitchen.

    When i was growing up and still today, menudo has always been the cure for whatever problems you have and whatever ails you!!! And it absolutely brings families together and also is the only thing to cure a hangover. I’ve eaten it my entire life. Im about to be 51 and my daughter at the time was maybe 15 or 16 at the time and is soon to be 18 but she eats menudo with the ol man probably 4 or 5 years now and I couldn’t be more proud!!!

    Love Juanita's canned menudo. Usually do diced onion with fresh cilantro and seeded/diced serrano or jalapeno with lime juice as a fresh salsa garnish. That and warm buttered corn tortillas and I am good to go. For breakfast I'll poach a couple eggs in the broth with the lid on after turning off the heat. Juanita's canned pozole is really good as well.

    • @oldschoolfunkster1
      @oldschoolfunkster1 2 ปีที่แล้ว +6

      @@BrooklynnTae32 ... It's really an acquired taste due to the stomach (honeycombed) tripe ingredient. I love the flavor, but still can't eat much of the tripe. Slimy and sometimes tough to chew.
      The closest I can explain of the flavor is like a beef stew with a dry chili (not hot at all) base. The hominy is a processed corn product (maize) which has a very mild corn flavor.
      I much prefer posole, which has about the same ingredients as in menudo, but instead has small chunks of pork shoulder instead of the tripe.
      I would start with a dish of posole first before you go directly to menudo.

  • @maydaygarden
    @maydaygarden 2 ปีที่แล้ว +10

    I do the same! A small local restaurant here in AZ serves it on weekends with a small container of the spice mix plus a baggie with fresh cilantro and chopped onions plus some small lime halves and a toasted bollilo. It's pricey at $10 a quart so sometimes I just buy the Juanita brand and add my own seasoning. They are very similar in flavor and I don't get the random bone sometimes found in the restaurant version. Great video ☺️

I have even cooked beef feet separately and then added it to the menudo and let it simmer with the menudo for about 15 mins on a low. I always cook the beef feet the night before, since it takes the longest to cook. I really enjoy your videos, this is probably the 6 or 7 video I have watched and enjoyed ! 👍😊❤✌

Then a little water and garlic powder, salt and pepper, and … I have added hominy to stretch it to feed 4. But I also have added cooked ditalini pasta too, then some hot sauce. It’s so good and filling!

    I LOVE IT. Junanita menudo when I bought it, it's taste just like my mother menudo it taste good and I continue to buy when I crave it. It's so delicious. I choose Juanitas menudo. #1

    This is exactly how I doctor my canned menudo. Although a small can of hominy I'm going to add to my mix.
