    PEPPER POT SOUP


    1 pound honeycomb tripe
    5 slices bacon, diced
    1/2 cup peeled, chopped yellow onion
    1/2 cup chopped celery
    3 leeks cleaned and chopped
    1 bunch parsley, chopped
    2 green sweet bell peppers, seeded and chopped
    2 quarts beef stock, canned or homemade
    1 tsp whole thyme leaves, or more to taste
    1/2 tsp marjoram
    1/2 tsp ground cloves
    1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
    1 bay leaf
    1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
    1 large potato, peeled and diced
    4 Tbs each butter and flour, cooked together to form a roux

    Place the tripe in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil and turn off the heat. Allow the tripe to cool in the water and then drain and rinse. Cut into 1/4 inch diced pieces


    Recipe

    . In a large heavy kettle, saute the bacon. Add the onion, celery, leeks, parsley, and green peppers - saute until tender. Add the remaining ingredients except the potato, flour, and butter. Bring the kettle to a boil and turn down to a simmer. Cook, covered, until the tripe is very tender, about 2 hours. Add the diced potato and cook about 20 minutes. Prepare the roux by stirring the flour into the melted butter and cooking for a moment on the stove. When the soup is done, stir in the roux and simmer, stirring constantly, until the soup slightly thickens.
