Boiled Tongue

Recipe View 5 mins Place the beef tongue in a large soup pot. (5 minutes)

Recipe View 2 mins Season generously with sea salt, ensuring it's evenly distributed. (2 minutes)

Recipe View 3 mins Pour in enough cold water to completely submerge the tongue. It's crucial that the tongue remains covered throughout the cooking process. (3 minutes)

Recipe View 10 mins Bring the water to a rolling boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to a gentle simmer, cover the pot, and cook for 2 1/2 to 3 hours, or until the outer skin begins to easily peel away. The exact cooking time will depend on the size and thickness of the tongue. (10 minutes)

Recipe View 5 mins Carefully remove the tongue from the pot and place it in a bowl of cold water for a few minutes to cool slightly. This will make it easier to handle. (5 minutes)

Recipe View 15 mins While the tongue is still warm (but cool enough to handle), use a sharp knife to peel off the outer skin. The skin should slip off relatively easily. If it's stubborn, you may need to use the knife to gently loosen it. Discard the skin. (15 minutes)

Recipe View 5 mins Once peeled, the tongue is ready to slice and serve. It can be served warm or cold. (5 minutes)
