Boiled beef tongue is considered by many to be an exquisite meat delicacy.
In this article we will tell you exactly about this: how to prepare a truly tasty dish from offal.
But first, it is worth remembering that the outcome of the dish largely depends on the quality of the products used. When choosing a tongue, make sure that it is not grayish in color and does not show signs of weathering.
The frozen product should be defrosted in the refrigerator beforehand. After that, it should be soaked in cool water for 30-40 minutes.
Now rinse the offal and scrape off any possible dirt from its surface with a knife.
Boil a pot of water on the stove and place the beef tongue in it. After 15 minutes of cooking, drain the water and pour boiling water over the tongue again.
Be sure to add black peppercorns and bay leaf to the tongue.
The product must be cooked over medium heat, periodically removing the foam that rises to the surface of the water.
The cooking time depends on the size of the tongue: if it is small, then 2 hours will be enough, and for one whose weight exceeds 2 kg, it will take about 3.5 hours.
When there is half an hour left in the cooking time, throw the peeled carrots and onion into the pan and add salt to the water.
