History
Obispo is a traditional sausage from Tenancingo, in the State of Mexico: a mixture of pork meat and offal seasoned with herbs, chiles and spices, stuffed into the animal’s stomach and then cooked. Its name is attributed to the rounded shape of the piece, which recalls a bishop’s mitre. It is sold at the Tenancingo market and eaten in slices, in tacos or fried.
Cultural Notes
El obispo es el producto insignia de Tenancingo junto con el chorizo verde y el rebozo. Se come en tacos con salsa verde y nopales, y es platillo de mercado y de fiesta local más que de carta de restaurante.
