It tastes just like corned beef, but a bit better!<br /><br />We also regularly made crumbed lamb's brains, and lamb's fry and bacon.<br /><br />I'll never forget the time my Mum asked the butcher "do you have any brains?".<br /><br />He replied "if I did, love, I wouldn't be working here!"<br /><br />Hehe. His sense of humour was offal.<br /><br />:-)Darren (Green Change)http://www.green-change.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6155811529104728951.post-60330338683024840042011-08-31T10:19:53.641+10:002011-08-31T10:19:53.641+10:00Yes Nellymary, the tongue is rolled tight and pack...Yes Nellymary, the tongue is rolled tight and packed into the bowl. I holds its shape and makes nice uniform slices. You could do the same in a loaf tin just make sure that it packs in tightly.<br /><br />cheers Katesimplelifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13397507005757292686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6155811529104728951.post-21976900878047303732011-08-31T09:59:21.276+10:002011-08-31T09:59:21.276+10:00Kids and Canning Jars: I'm proud of me too...I...Kids and Canning Jars: I'm proud of me too...I think you need to be ready to try something like this...Ordering the beast has made me ready...I need to be prepared and educated.<br /><br />Susan: Excellent idea of chopping it into a loaf tin for sandwich sized slices..Thanks<br /><br />Simplelife: Hi Kate, that sounds good too...do you roll it really tight? <br /><br />alecat: I can definitely recommend the tongue to anyone who likes silverside...I'm getting more...Thanks for reading these posts with much interest...I'm finding it all very interesting too.nellymaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00290358658245310632noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6155811529104728951.post-46964149544248180422011-08-31T08:43:59.163+10:002011-08-31T08:43:59.163+10:00I remember my Mum cooking tongue and liking it.

It doesn't look like a tongue once it's pressed and so passes the kid test.<br /><br />Enjoy<br />cheers Katesimplelifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13397507005757292686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6155811529104728951.post-63162266109285452882011-08-31T08:00:51.641+10:002011-08-31T08:00:51.641+10:00Oh yes, tongue is tres yummy!

...I am extremely proud of you for your tasting it. <br />As, for me. It looks absolutely disgusting and I will not be buying any tongue. I had a bad experience with cow tongue in fourth grade and I have never forgotten it. Yucky! <br />I will be watching um, reading closely with all you are doing. Good luck, <br />MelissaKids and Canning Jarshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04794388845414644018noreply@blogger.com
