Directions
This authentic Mexican dish is simply amazing. Some cultures consider the tongue a delicacy. One bite into the tasty meat and you’ll know why. The meat is fatty and fine textured like pot roast and you can get them at many markets nowadays. Obviously we would prefer that you seek out a grass-fed cow tongue. You’ll need to plan ahead for this one. It takes some time to cook the meat.
