About
I grew up practically knowing Menudo as a special dish.I am very fond of it either.During occasions I would always include Menudo on my list because of its taste and versatility.Some older ones would prefer this with beer, gin or whisky.The children love Menudo with rice especially if it has slices of hotdogs included.Others like me,we love Menudo with white bread and the best characteristic of Menudo,it can also last longer,just keep it in a glass container and set aside in the fridge and it will last for a week.I have a friend who I remember,his great grandmother would cook menudo and the shelf life would last for months,wow!I wish I can do that.
