I love tongue! My grandmother used to make it with blackberry sauce and it was incredible. Growing up in Meixco, tacos de lengua, were a must… and some of the best french restaurants I’ve been to serve a delicious cold tongue with vinaigrette (salad like, but without the greens).

Thank you for helping me understand the basics for cooking it!

Great recipe!

It’s a genuine shame that so few people have been introduced to beef tongue. It has a great flavor, and a texture like a perfect corned beef. I’ve been gently introducing my friends to tongue by serving them lengua tacos. Every last one of them has been amazed — and converted, even if their initial reaction to hearing what was being served was “ewwww.”

I must agree, I’m no huge red-meat lover, but tongue is tender and delightful to eat. However I must admit I’m in no rush to preach the wonders of tongue.. it’s a seldom-available treat around these parts and I’m not anxious to have more competition on the rare occasions I can find it. =P

Happy eating!

People who’ve never had cow tounge do not know what their missing. It’s so soft and tender when cooked right.

I wish I could say I’m intrigued. But I have a hard enough time eating anything off a bone; I don’t know if I could eat it knowing it was a tongue. I’m sure I’d like it if I didn’t know what I was eating.

It looks good once it’s cooked.

Despite its very high ick factor, cow tongue, I must assume, tastes just as good as ox tongue, which I’ve had.

Surprsingly ox tongue taste best only in cream sauce. If you didn’t ask, they’d taste a little like beef-gone-chewy.

Definitely hair-raising but worth the meal once or twice when done right =)

[...] is a good way to introduce tongue to anybody squeamish about the subject, probably better than the previous tongue post. The meat was brown and crispy, the cabbage slaw was crunchy, the chipotle mayo added some heat and [...]
