trippa

Famous especially in Florence, where people queue up for steaming hot trippa alla fiorentina (the cow’s second or ‘honeycombed’ stomach, stewed in onions and tomatoes) in a bun. Or they may just order lampredotto. There is also a saucier version, with celery and peperonicini, served on plates.

trippette can mean the tripe of lamb or another small animal—or it can be fish guts, specifically the swim bladder of dried or salt cod, or other fish. Stewed with tomatoes, this was once a popular cucina povera dish in Liguria and the south.
