Ingredients for Tongue in Tomato Sauce
  • 1 unit fresh beef tongue
  • 1 can unit tomato paste or strained tomato sauce
  • 2 unit ripe tomatoes (diced)
  • 1 unit onion (chopped)
  • 1 unit red bell pepper (chopped)
  • 6 tablespoons dry white wine
  • 2 units bay leaves
  • to taste unit minced garlic
  • to taste unit salt
  • to taste unit black pepper
Instructions
    Preparation Steps
  1. Kneading and Cooking the Tongue

    Knead the tongue on a marble surface vigorously. Cook it until tender and peel it completely.

  2. Sautéing and Simmering

    In a pressure cooker, sauté the garlic and fry the tomato paste or sauce. Add salt, black pepper, white wine, two cups of water, and bay leaves and bring to a boil.

  3. Finishing Touches

    After about 20 minutes of boiling (enough for the tongue to be well cooked), turn off the heat and let the pot cool down. When it stops making noise, add the diced tomatoes, onion, and bell pepper. Let it simmer until you obtain a thick sauce, boiling a bit longer (with the lid off).

    Serve with fresh herbs on top.
