Pork Menudo
Come to think of it. I’ve been blogging for how many years now and yet, I haven’t blogged about Pork Menudo.
Oh my gosh. I have taken it for granted. Well, now is the time to put it on spotlight.
Pork Menudo is a dish that you won’t only see on the family table on a day-to-day meal. It is also served during special occasions or when there are guests coming.
What I know about Menudo, I learned from my mother- the color, the taste, the consistency of the sauce and the ingredients. She cooks really good Menudo.

I love my pork menudo with a lot of raisins, peanutbutter♥ doesn’t. He usually ends up with all the raisins on one side of his plate. Which is a good thing, I get to eat a lot of raisins.
