Rinse tripe under cold running water and cut large pieces into 1inch

and salt. Bring to a boil and skim foam if necessary. Reduce the heat and
cook at a simmer for 2 to 3 hours or until tripe is tender. Add the canned
hominy, liquid and all. Cook 15 minutes longer. About 10 minutes before
serving, add the cilantro, green onions, and tomatillos. Remove the bouquet
garni. Garnishes may include mild red chile sauce, ground chile powder,
oregano leaves, chopped onions, or lime wedges, or cut or sliced up radishes.
