Edible parts of slaughter animals, apart from the meat.

Ruminants’ stomach lining, made ready for cooking; the main ingredient in many regional dishes, the best known being tripes ?? la mode de Caen.

tongue

Covered with a thick skin that lifts off easily once cooked; calf tongue is the most tender.

brains

Lamb, sheep and veal brains are the most prized, served in salads, au gratin, in croquettes, stuffings and sauces.
