    Title: Tongue For Sandwiches
    Categories: Beef, Offal, Herbs
    Yield: 12 Servings

    3 lb (to 4 lb) calf/beef tongue
    2 md Yellow onions; peeled,
    - quartered
    2 cl Garlic; peeled, bruised
    1 California bay leaf
    12 Black peppercorns; cracked
    1 ts Dried thyme
    1 ts Dried basil
    Water to cover
    2 tb Table salt

    Choose a tongue of about 3-4 lbs; beef tongues can weigh
    up to 9 lbs but the larger ones can be difficult to cook.
    Tongues are readily available in most Latino markets. If
    one is not available, you should be able to order one from
    your butcher. Soak the tongue in cold water to remove any
    traces of blood, then drain and discard the water.

    Place the tongue in an 8 quart pot and cover with salted
    water. Peel and cut the onions into quarters and add to
    the pot. Bring the water to a boil, then reduce the heat
    to a slow simmer. Add the garlic and herbs Cover the pot
    and cook the tongue for 3 hours (if your tongue is not 3
    pounds, plan on cooking 50 to 60 minutes per pound.) When
    done, the tongue will be tender, easily pierced with a
    knife.

    To peel the skin from the tongue, should you wish to do
    that to serve squeamish people: Remove the tongue from the
    pot and allow it to cool just enough to handle. Slide a
    knife under the skin to loosen it; the skin should peel
    off easily while the tongue is warm, although it is more
    difficult if the tongue has fully cooled.

    Otherwise, remove the tongue from the water and let it
    drain and cool until it is cool enough to handle. The
    tongue is now ready to slice for sandwiches. I like to
    make 1/8" to 1/4" slices. It can be served warm or cold.

    Makes enough for 12 (or more) hearty sandwiches.
