How to make it
- For the corned beef brine:
- 1. In a really big stainless steel pot add the water, spices, vegetables, salt and sugar. Bring it all up to boil for 5 minutes to infuse the flavors. When the brine is ready, remove it from the stove and cool it down completely (cold, not warm) and brine the beef tongue in the refrigerator for a day or so.
- 2. The following day, remove the tongue from the brine and place it in a large pot. Add half of the brine and all of the spices and vegetable from the brine into the pot. Add an equal amount of water, bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook anywhere from 6 to 8 hours until thoroughly tender. That was pre Crock Pot but that’s what I use now.
- 3. When the tongue is ready, remove it from the pot and allow to cool to the touch. peel away the outer skin and remove the bones from the end and cartilage from the underside. Wrap the tongue in plastic wrap and cool, in the fridge, overnight.
- 4. Slice fairly thin medallions off of the whole cooked tongue and layer onto thick-cut slices of rye or pumpernickel bread with your favorite toppings, or simply a smear of spicy brown mustard. Now you got a sandwich. See Photo
