Tripas a moda do Porto · Porto
The white-bean and tripe stew that gave Porto its tripeiros nickname, slow-cooked with cured meats, carrots and chourico over rice for a heavy Sunday lunch dish.
When Portuguese ships gathered on the Douro in 1415 to sail for Ceuta under Prince Henry the Navigator, Porto sent its best meat with the fleet. The city was left with the offal, including the tripe, which the cooks turned into a bean-and-cured-meat stew. The nickname tripeiros, tripe-eaters, has been Porto's badge of honour for six centuries.
