This menudo recipe here is a Kapampangan version. It does not have tomato sauce and hotdogs like the usual pork menudo that we eat or serve. But I guarantee you that this version will be the tastiest menudo that you never tasted before. This version of pork menudo uses ripe tomatoes and atchuete oil that replaces the tomato sauce and this is the reason why the flavor is almost comparable to the usual menudo. Also, I think one of the technique of making a tasty menudo is by marinating it first with soy sauce and calamansi juice. Which is also done in this recipe. Even my wife is doing that technique in cooking menudo with tomato sauce and hotdogs that is why it is tastier. Just don’t use too much calamansi juice because it will make the dish sour and the only way to correct it is by adding a little bit of sugar.
