So I run this blog called Offally Sweet - http://offallysweet.blogspot.com/
where I cook some of the lesser-used bits of the animal and write about it. It's a lot of fun, and it's sort of been my pet project this semester. I always get a lot of strange looks at the butcher's when I order several pounds of organ meat.

Here's one of the tamer (and more delicious) recipes i've attempted so far: lengua tacos! Tacos made with slow-cooked beef tongue, homemade salsa verde, sliced avocado and cilantro. I made a huge batch of these for some skeptical friends and by the end of the evening, there was nothing left!

ingredients

3 lbs beef tongue
2 onions, peeled and chopped
1 full head of garlic, peeled and smashed
6 bay leaves
1 tbsp salt
Olive oil

Salsa verde (homemade or store bought)
Corn tortillas
Avocados, sliced
Cilantro
Lime wedges
Rice

Directions:

Place the beef tongue, onions, garlic, bay leaves and salt in a slow cooker and cover with water. Cover and cook on low overnight or 8 hours. Remove the tongue and cut the skin off the meat, then chop into 1/4-inch pieces.

Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sauté the beef tongue, seasoning with salt and pepper. Once slightly crispy, remove to a serving plate. Serve with tortillas, salsa, toppings and rice.
