    Brine the beef tongue for 5-7 days.

    Cook the Beef Tongue

    Remove the beef tongue from the brine and rinse with water to prevent it from getting too salty.

  2. Beef tongue is one of those meats I have no confidence in cooking right but I'll eat it if someone who's familiar with it does.

  3. Look, I'm not against trying new and creating new receipts. Also, I'm not against the cow or sheep tongues, trying and creating new receipts from imagination, sometimes ending up good and delicious but when internet chefs makes new receipts from scratch and pretends it's good one of the best and delicious thing they ever had after failing or actual taste being like s*it its makes me sick don't pretend don't lie on the internet therse a kids believes and thinks that everything they see in online is ritgh and good please don't do that

  4. I saw your ad of the new Szechuan crisper but honestly they are bland and don't really taste much like szechuan flavor. Their best flavor is still All dressed hands down

    Beef tongue is actually really good
