Tongue Salad
Description
Perfect for an everyday table. Tongue is an offal, so it requires quite a long cooking time. It's best to boil it in advance and chill thoroughly—this way, it will be easy to slice. You can use either red or white onion for the salad. The salad can be served simply in a bowl or shaped using a cooking ring and decorated to your liking. Garnish as desired and serve.
