  • 4-5 pound tongue
  • 3 onions, sliced
  • 2 teaspoons salt
  • ½ teaspoon pepper
  • ¾ teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 cup canned tomato sauce
  • 2 tomatoes, diced
  • 2 cups boiling water
  • Plunge the tongue into boiling water and cook 10 minutes. Drain and remove the skin and root.

    Place the tongue in a roasting pan with the onions around it. Sprinkle with the salt and pepper and garlic powder. Add the bay leaf, tomato sauce, tomatoes and water. Cover the pan and roast in a 325 degree oven for 3 hours or until the tongue is tender.

    Baste frequently and remove the cover for the last 30 minutes. Discard bay leaf. Serves 6 to 8.
