It is necessary to wash the intestine very well. Make a marinade with the dressings of
preference: parsley, coriander, basil, achiote, onion and salt. The ingredients are ground
well and added to the intestines. A long onion can be inserted into each casing to make
sure it is well seasoned. Leave them in the marinade for at least one night.
Prepare the brazier and when a suitable heat has been achieved, add the casings. Roast
them evenly. When they are cooked and have a golden color, cut them into pieces and
serve them with boiled potatoes, mote and peanut sauce. You can also add a slice of
avocado.
PROPERTIES
In addition to providing protein, the mishqui intestine has a phosphorus and is a good
source of iron. These nutrients are necessary for the proper functioning of muscles, bones
and blood cells. The sebum in the gut is traditionally considered to help protect the
intestinal walls.
Especially beef has other nutrients such as niacin and vitamin B12, in addition to
containing an important mineral called manganese.
