Beef tongue or neat's tongue is the tongue of a cow. Beef tongue is very high in fat, at almost 75% of its calories derived.〔http://www.calorie-count.com/calories/item/13340.html〕 Some countries, including Canada and specifically the province of Alberta, export large quantities of beef tongue. The tongues of other animals, notably pigs and lambs, are also eaten, and are very similar to beef tongue. In some animals, the tongue is reputed to be the tastiest part. For example, Adolf Erik Nordenskiöld found most of the walrus not particularly tasty, but walrus tongue, a delicacy. The whale tongue, too, was viewed as a Lenten delicacy by Roman Catholics in the Middle Ages. ==Preparation== Tongue is often seasoned with onion and other spices, and then placed in a pot to boil. After it has cooked the skin is removed. Pickled tongue is often used by the preparer because it is already spiced. If cooked in a sauce, it can then later be reused as a sauce for meatballs or any other food item. Another way of preparing tongue is to scald it in hot water and remove the skin, then roast the tongue in an oven, using the pan drippings to prepare a gravy. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「beef tongue」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
