Beef tongue in sauce
Description
Let's prepare beef tongue in sauce at home. The previously boiled tongue is simmered in sour cream sauce, resulting in an incredibly delicious dish. Many people cook the tongue together with other vegetables, for example, carrots. Serve the dish hot, possibly without a full side dish, but with fresh vegetables and herbs. Good luck!

Season with salt to taste and cook for 2.5 hours, skimming off the foam. Check for doneness with a knife: the tongue should be tender and easily pierced.
