FILLED TONGUE

Take a pickled tongue, cut it open; chop or grind some corned beef; add
one egg; brown a little onion, and add some soaked bread; fill tongue
with it, and sew it up and boil until done.


SMOKED TONGUE

Put on to boil in a large kettle, fill with cold water, enough to
completely cover the tongue; keep adding hot water as it boils down so
as to keep it covered with water until done. Keep covered with a lid
while boiling and put a heavy weight on the top of the lid so as not to
let the steam escape. (If you have an old flat iron use it as a weight.)
It should boil very slowly and steadily for four hours. When tongue is
cooked set it outdoors to cool in the liquor in which it was boiled. If
the tongue is very dry, soak overnight before boiling. In serving slice
very thin and garnish with parsley.


SMOTHERED TONGUE

Scald tongue, and then skin. Season well with salt and pepper and slice
an onion over it. Let it stand overnight. Put some drippings in a
covered iron pot, and then the tongue, with whatever juice the seasoning
drew. Cover closely and let it cook slowly until tender--about three
hours.
