“Lampredotto is a typical Florentine dish, made from the fourth and final stomach of a cow, the abomasum. ‘Lampredotto’ is derived from the Italian word for lamprey eels, lampreda, as the tripe resembles a lamprey in shape and color. A sandwich with lampredotto—panino co i' lampredotto—has been described as a ‘classic Florentine’ sandwich and is a traditional regional street food in Florence. Lampredotto is typically slow-cooked in a vegetable broth, seasoned with herbs, chopped,and served in a bread roll. It is often topped with a spicy sauce or a green sauce (salsa verde). The Daily Meal has called lampredotto ‘a tripe-lover's dream.’” (Lampredotto, Wikipedia)
