Peppery Pig stomach soup

Peppery Pig stomach soup

Although this soup will require some extra work but it is worthy especially to release some wind from our stomach.

Now question is  how to clean the stomach?
It require multiple scrubs with salt and corn starch or plain flour.
Now... Cleaning Stomach method :

Prepare a bowl of salt and a bowl of corn flour or tapioca flour or plain flour. You will need alot of this.
Apply a handful of salt on the stomach surface, turn the stomach inside out, and apply another handful of salt. Give it a good rub like washing a piece of cloth using hand. Rinse it and you will feel very slippery and a lot of slimmy stuff. Then, add the flour on both inside and outside the stomach. Give it a good rub.
Don't be gentle.
Rinse with running water. By now, you should get rid some of the slimy and greasy residue.  After a few times or until there is no smell.
Use knife to scrap the stomach as and when, so as to scrap away the fats and other impurities on the lining. Rinse with running water.

Blanch the stomach in a boiling water for 5 minutes. The five minute boil will set it's shape and you can see some white layers. Scrap it off inside and outside or else you will not drink the soup. And you're done

Now, get ready all the soup ingredients we need.
