Callos is a legacy from the Spanish colonial era and popular Caviteñean dish before. This is a savory stew of ox tripe and leg is flavored with spicy chorizo de bilbao and traditionally served with olives.
Over the years because of high cost of ingredients and complexities in cooking fewer and fewer families cook this at home. This is a simple recipe version of callos.
