What do you do with beef tongue? If it’s whole, peel and roast it. But what if it came presliced? Pho is always a good use for the juicy, flavorful meat, but it’s time consuming. Try it with sauerkraut, served over rice, says Sam Fujisaka, or julienne it and make fresh lumpia stuffed with it. Try a terrine of beef tongue, Asian pear or persimmon, and shoyu jelly, says JudiAU. Serve it cold, in a creamy, pickle-y sauce, or with a spicy tomatillo salsa and tortillas. Enjoy—it’s versatile and delicious.

    Howdy from Texas. I bought a tongue yesterday and cooked it that evening. All I did was boil it for about 20 minutes, dip it in cold water and slice the outer skin off with a sharp knife. Be careful, I have a cut on my thumb now. Then I put slices in it and packed it with garlic and TexJoy seasoning. Rubbed Soy Sauce on the outside and seasoned it. Placed it in my steamer and steamed it for two hours. It was awesome! I ate it with Hourse Radish Sauce and Ritz crackers. Mom was proud I have kept the old tradition alive.
