Ingredients
 

FOR THE TONGUE:

  • 1 small Beef tongue
  • 1 half Fresh onion
  • 2 Bay leaves
  • 2 teaspoon Black peppercorns
  • 2 teaspoon Juniper berries
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 packet Soup vegetables

FOR THE BEANS:

  • 1 Fresh onion
  • 1 Streaky bacon
  • 20 g Butter
  • 1 Glass Broad beans
  • 1 smaller Bouillon cube
  • 1 Teaspoon or more Dried savory
  • Black pepper from the mill
  • 1 potty Cream
  • 2 tablespoon Sauce binder light

Instructions
 

  • Boil 2 liters of water with the brewing ingredients and cook the tongue in it over a mild heat for 2 to 3 hours until it is soft. Then briefly put it in cold water and immediately peel off the hard skin . The tongue can now be cut into slices - but should remain covered with stock until further preparation.
  • You can serve the boiled tongue with a horseradish sauce, with Madeira sauce or with caper or herb sauce. There are many other options, I just served them with broad beans today because we really love the creamy bacon sauce with broad beans.
  • Preparation of the side dish: cut the bacon and onion into cubes and sauté in butter until translucent; Add the beans from the glass with the liquid and season with stock cube, savory and a pinch of pepper. Now stir in the cream, put a lid on and cook the vegetables over a mild heat for 15 minutes. Tie lightly with the sauce thickener and serve the broad beans with the cooked tongue.
  • Bon appetit !!
  • Note 5: such a large beef tongue is of course way too much for two people - but you can freeze it very well (covered with a little brew) and then always have a quick piece of meat with the base for a sauce on hand.
