Baked beef tongue in the oven

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   How to bake a tongue? Prepare all the products. We, in fact, will only need a tongue and salt. Do not take too big a tongue - it will take a very long time to prepare and it can turn out to be tough. It is optimal if you have a tongue weighing about 1 kg. My salt is ordinary table salt, but you can also take flavored salt: Adyghe or Sevan.

2. Step 2:

   

   Since the tongue is still a by-product, it should be washed very well. It will be best if you use a special brush for washing products for washing. You can also soak your tongue in cold water for 1-2 hours - this way you will wash off most of the blood and less foam will be released during cooking.

3. Step 3:

   

   Fill the tongue with clean water and put it on the fire.

4. Step 4:

   

   Bring to a boil and cook over low heat, constantly removing the foam, for about an hour. If your tongue is more than 1 kg, the cooking time can be increased.

5. Step 5:

   

   Take out the tongue.

7. Step 6:

   

   While it's hot, remove the skin from the tongue.

8. Step 7:

   

   Put your tongue in a heat-resistant mold. Cover the mold with foil and bake in a preheated 180 degree oven for about 1 -1.5 hours. For a crispy crust, remove the foil 20 minutes before the end of cooking. If you do not want a crust, you can not remove the foil.

9. Step 8:

   

   Salt the finished tongue. You can also pepper it or add some of your favorite seasonings.
