Jellied tongue

Step-by-step preparation

Cooking time: 2 hr

1. STEP 1

   

   Prepare the ingredients for the aspic, peel the carrots and onions, boil the eggs.

2. STEP 2

   

   We wash the beef tongue and place it in a pan with cold water so that it is completely covered on top. As soon as it boils, skim off the foam and reduce the heat to low. Cook the tongue for 1.5-2 hours until fully cooked, periodically cleaning the surface of the water to remove any foam that has appeared. 30 minutes before the end of cooking, add carrots, onions, bay leaves, pepper and salt to the pan.

3. STEP 3

   

   Soak the gelatin in cold boiled water for 40 minutes so that it swells and is ready for further use.

4. STEP 4

   

   After the time has passed, we take out the tongue and immediately lower it into a container with cold water to easily and simply free it from the outer skin. Then cut it into thin pieces of equal thickness. We also cut eggs and carrots into slices. Strain the broth and add dissolved gelatin to it, stirring.

5. STEP 5

   

   You can place the prepared chopped pieces in portioned salad bowls and pour in the strained broth, not forgetting to garnish with parsley leaves, chopped eggs, carrots, olives, lemon slices, cucumbers (fresh or pickled) - to your taste.

6. STEP 6

   

   Serve with horseradish, mayonnaise or mustard.

   Bon appetit everyone and Happy New Year!!!

A wonderful recipe for a festive table, I can’t imagine a New Year’s feast without a tongue. Previously, I just boiled it, and when serving, decorated it with carrots, onions and cauliflower, but in the form of jellied tongue, it will undoubtedly look even more gorgeous. Now I know, How can I surprise and delight my guests tomorrow). And Happy New Year to you, Anna!
