Add the chopped onion, garlic, bay leaves, and peppercorns. If you like, add carrots and celery for extra flavour.<\/li>\n<li class=\"x_MsoListParagraph\">Simmer: Bring the water to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cover and let it cook for about 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the tongue is tender when pierced with a fork.<\/li>\n<li class=\"x_MsoListParagraph\">Peel the Tongue: Once cooked, remove the tongue from the pot and let it cool slightly. While it&#8217;s still warm, peel off the outer layer of skin. It should come off easily; if not, cook it a little longer.<\/li>\n<li class=\"x_MsoListParagraph\">Slice and Serve: Slice the tongue thinly. It\u2019s delicious served warm or cold, and pairs well with mustard, horseradish, or even in sandwiches!<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"hide-redirect-shortcode\">\t\t<meta http-equiv=\"refresh\" content=\"60; url=https:\/\/bluffmeatsupply.co.za\/touchscreen\/\">\r\n\t\tPlease wait while you are redirected...or <a href=\"https:\/\/bluffmeatsupply.co.za\/touchscreen\/\">Click Here<\/a> if you do not want to wait.\r\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"qrcpromodalwrapper\" style=\"margin: 20px 0;\"><button type=\"button\" class=\"qrc-modal-toggle\" id=\"popModal_ex2\" style=\"background:#d81313;color:#ffffff;border: 1px solid #ce1e1e;border-radius:20px;padding: 6px 14px;font-size:17px\">Click To View On Phone<\/button><div class=\"qrc_modal\"><div class=\"qrc-overlay qrc-modal-toggle\"><\/div><div class=\"qrc-modal-wrapper qrc-modal-transition\"><span class=\"qrc-modal-toggle\">&times;<\/span><div class=\"qrcswholewtapper\" style=\"text-align:left;\"><div class=\"qrcprowrapper\"  id=\"qrcwraa2leds\"><div class=\"qrc_canvass\" id=\"qrc_cuttenpages_2\" style=\"display:inline-block\" data-text=\"https:\/\/bluffmeatsupply.co.za\/touchscreen\/index.php\/recipe\/pickled-tongue\/\"><\/div><div><a download=\"Pickled Tongue.png\" class=\"qrcdownloads\" id=\"worign\">\r\n           <button type=\"button\" style=\"min-width:250px;background:#c0081d;color:#ffffff;font-weight: 600;border: 1px solid #e2141b;border-radius:20px;font-size:17px;padding: 6px 0;\" class=\"uqr_code_btn\">Scan QR \ud83e\udc0b<\/button>\r\n           <\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ingredients 2kg pickled beef tongue 1 large onion, chopped 2-3 cloves garlic, peeled and crushed 1-2 bay leaves 1 tsp black peppercorns Water (enough to cover the tongue in the pot) Optional: carrots, celery, and herbs for added flavour Method Rinse the Tongue: Rinse the pickled beef tongue under cold water to remove any excess [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":29444,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"recipe-course":[],"recipe-cuisine":[37,56],"recipe-cooking-method":[],"recipe-tag":[],"recipe-key":[],"recipe-badge":[],"recipe-dietary":[],"class_list":["post-29443","recipe","type-recipe","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","recipe-cuisine-festive","recipe-cuisine-beef-tongue"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/bluffmeatsupply.co.za\/touchscreen\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/recipe\/29443","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/bluffmeatsupply.co.za\/touchscreen\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/recipe"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/bluffmeatsupply.co.za\/touchscreen\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/recipe"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bluffmeatsupply.co.za\/touchscreen\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bluffmeatsupply.co.za\/touchscreen\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=29443"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bluffmeatsupply.co.za\/touchscreen\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/29444"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/bluffmeatsupply.co.za\/touchscreen\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=29443"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"recipe-course","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bluffmeatsupply.co.za\/touchscreen\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/recipe-course?post=29443"},{"taxonomy":"recipe-cuisine","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bluffmeatsupply.co.za\/touchscreen\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/recipe-cuisine?post=29443"},{"taxonomy":"recipe-cooking-method","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bluffmeatsupply.co.za\/touchscreen\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/recipe-cooking-method?post=29443"},{"taxonomy":"recipe-tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bluffmeatsupply.co.za\/touchscreen\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/recipe-tag?post=29443"},{"taxonomy":"recipe-key","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bluffmeatsupply.co.za\/touchscreen\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/recipe-key?post=29443"},{"taxonomy":"recipe-badge","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bluffmeatsupply.co.za\/touchscreen\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/recipe-badge?post=29443"},{"taxonomy":"recipe-dietary","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bluffmeatsupply.co.za\/touchscreen\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/recipe-dietary?post=29443"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
