For easier peeling, after cooking, plunge the tongue into an ice bath for a few minutes. The cooking liquid (broth) can be reserved, strained, and used as a flavorful base for soups or stews. Lengua is delicious in tacos, burritos, or even served over rice. Consider adding a pinch of cumin or smoked paprika to the skillet for added depth of flavor.
