I have told the tale before of the time when I was running a cafe and featured
a boiled tongue sarnie and bowl of veggie soup as my "Soup & Sandwich" feature.
And the lady who declaimed "I don't want anything that came from an animal's
mouth. Can I have an egg sandwich instead?"  Bv)=

      Title: Boiled Beef Tongue
 Categories: Beef, Offal, Chilies
      Yield: 12 Servings
 
      3 lb Fresh beef tongue
      1 sm Red hot chile
    1/4 c  Salt
           Pepper
    1/4 ts Dried oregano
    1/4 ts Marjoram
    1/4 ts Summer Savory
      2 cl Garlic; peeled, bruised
           Water to cover
      1 c  Water
    1/2 c  Vinegar
      4 tb Sugar
 
  Wash fresh tongue and place in 6 quart pot, cover completely
  with water. Add salt, pepper, garlic and spices. Add more
  water as it evaporates, keeping the tongue covered until
  done. The tongue will be done when it can be pierced easily
  with a fork.
  
  If you want to use it right away, take off the skin and set
  tongue aside to cool. Do not take the skin off until ready
  for use.
  
  After peeling the skin, place tongue in a saucepan with the
  one cup of water, vinegar and sugar. Cook until liquid has
  evaporated.
  
  NOTE: If salted tongues are used, omit salt when boiling.
