Serves everyone
A good way to get kids to eat tongue (if you must push the cholesterol…). Also good use for leftover tongue, if you are sick of cold tongue sandwiches.
Ingredients:
| some | Cooked pickled tongue, sliced thinly |
| 1-2 cups | reserved cooking water from tongue (if you didn’t save any, use broth or water with soup powder) |
| 1 | large onion, chopped well (best in food processor) |
| 1/3 cup | vinegar |
| 2 tbs | brown sugar |
| 2/3 cup | yellow raisins |
Preparation:
- Fry onion in shallow pot (or frying pan with tall sides) until translucent (isn’t that a great word?! Say it slowly and you can actually see through the onion bits! Whoops! They’re burning by now!).
- Add the cooking water, vinegar, brown sugar & raisins. Stir well & taste.
- Add vinegar or sugar or salt/soup powder as necessary to balance the taste.
- Add sliced tongue and cook together 10 minutes.
- Serve hot. Or cold. Or room teperature... just serve it already, I'm hungry!
