Braised pork tongue

The tongue, one of the strongest muscle of the body – can my slow cooker break down its striated fibre? Yes it can! Although the preparation is a bit more work, the result is incredibly tender and flavourful meat.

The annoying is step is the removal of the film on the tongue after it’s been braised. It’s a very versatile meat and can be seasoned with a variety of ways!

2016 has been off a good start in terms of creative cooking! I served mine with baby bokchoy and quinoa. Delicious!
