LENGUA TACOS



Lengua Tacos image

there are so few lengua recipes on here so i thought i'd post this one. found at http://simplyrecipes.com/recipes/beef_tacos_de_lengua/

Provided by Allotta

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 4h

Yield 18 tacos, 9 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 lbs beef tongues
2 large onions, peeled
1 head garlic, peeled and crushed
6 bay leaves
1 tablespoon peppercorn
2 tablespoons salt
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
18 corn tortillas
1 1/4 cups salsa verde
4 avocados
10 sprigs cilantro

Steps:

  • Fill a large (12-quart if you have one) stock pot two-thirds full with water. Add the tongue, onions, crushed garlic cloves, bay leaves, peppercorns, and salt. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook for 3 hours, until the tongue is soft to the touch and tender.
  • Remove tongue from water and let cool for a couple of minutes. Notice the light colored skin-like covering over most of the tongue. Using your fingers, and/or a sharp small knife, remove this covering and discard. Notice the rough patch of meat where the tongue would attach to the bottom of the mouth. Arturo removes this patch (as does his mother when she prepares tongue) because it is a little rough. It's perfectly edible though, so keep it attached if you want.
  • Slice the tongue in 1/4-inch slices. (If you are not preparing the whole tongue for tacos, you can return whatever tongue you do not slice to the cooking water to soak.) Heat a little oil in a frying pan on medium high and sauté the slices on both sides until they are lightly browned. Remove from pan and slice first into strips, then crosswise again so that you end up with small cubes.
  • Soften tortillas either by cooking on the stove-top until pockets of air appear in them, or in the microwave (about 10 seconds per tortilla). Place a large spoonful of meat in the center of a tortilla. Add a spoonful of salsa verde and some chopped avocado, chopped fresh cilantro.

  • You need to simmer the tongues first. You can go as simple as simmering them in beef or chicken broth, or if you want to do water, add some bay leaves or avocado leaves, some chopped onion and maybe a carrot or two. See below for some tips on the making a great simmering broth.
  • Once the tongue is tender, which will take about 2 to 3 hours, remove it and, as soon as it is barely cool enough to handle, peel the skin off it. You might need a paring knife to help you with this. Discard the skin. Strain the broth and use it for some other purpose later.
  • While the tongue is simmering, mix the onion with some salt and the lime juice and let it sit at room temperature. This is best done the day you serve, but you can keep the pickled onion in the fridge a day or three without it getting nasty.
  • When the tongue is ready for the grill, get your fire nice and hot. If you are using smaller tongues, leave them whole. If you are using a large beef or elk tongue, cut it into 3 or 4 large chunks -- this will open up more surface area for browning. Coat the tongue with a little oil and grill until nicely browned.

  • Simmer the tongue. Put the tongue or tongues in a large pot and cover it with water by 2 inches. Bring the water to a simmer and add the onion, garlic, bay, black peppercorns, epazote and salt. Simmer the tongue until the sharp point of a thin knife will pierce it easily, about 2 to 3 hours.
  • Prep the tongue. When the meat is tender, set it on a cutting board to cool somewhat. When it’s just barely cool enough to handle, peel off the skin and discard. You can do all this up to a week ahead if you want. Just cool the peeled tongue and wrap in plastic wrap, it’ll keep in the refrigerator a week.
  • Brown the meat. When you’re ready to make the tacos, cut the tongue meat into large pieces. Sear in the lard until they’re nicely browned, then chop roughly. Serve on warm corn tortillas with the salsa, avocado, cilantro and other garnishes.

  • Place a wire rack in a roasting pan and then dump the salt and water in the pan. Wrap the beef tongue in banana leaves and place it on the rack over the water. Cover the entire pan with foil, slide it into the oven, and let it cook until the beef is fork tender, about 4 hours. You’ll want to check the water level every 1 1/2 hours, adding additional water if needed.
  • Remove the beef tongue from the oven and let it rest for 15 minutes. Remove and discard the banana leaves and then peel off the outer layer of beef tongue and discard it as well. Coarsely chop the remaining beef tongue. Taste and adjust the seasoning, adding salt and pepper if needed.
  • Divvy the meat among the tortillas. Top each taco with onion and cilantro, slather with salsa, if desired, and devour immediately.

  • Place beef tongue, water, onion, garlic, and sea salt in a slow cooker. Cook on low for 6 to 8 hours.
  • Once it’s tender, take the tongue out of the stock to cool off. Peel off the outer layer of skin when you are able to handle the tongue. It’s easier to take the skin off while the tongue is warm. Dice tongue into 1⁄2-inch cubes and set aside.
  • Strain the stock and set aside. It’s always better to refrigerate the stock so you can skim the fat off and discard. If you have a fat separator then you don’t have to refrigerate. Puree tomatoes in a food processor or blender and set aside.
  • In a large skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add onion and sauté until translucent, about 2 minutes. Add flour and stir for 2 minutes. Add pureed tomatoes and let come to a boil as you stir.

  • Place tongue, garlic, onion, bay leaves, peppercorns, marjoram, thyme, oregano and 1 tablespoon salt in a casserole or soup pot. Cover with water up to 2 inches above the tongue.
  • Bring to a rolling boil over high heat, then reduce to a gentle medium simmer, cover with a tight fitting lid and cook for 3 hours, or until the tongue is completely tender and soft. Check the water halfway through and add more hot water if need be to keep the tongue mostly covered.
  • Remove the tongue from the broth and place on a chopping board. Using a small sharp knife and your hands, remove the outer layer of skin, as well as the bottom part of the tongue, which would attach it to the mouth, as it tends to be harder and greasy. The tongue is easier to peel if it is still warm or hot.
