About Lamb, New Zealand, imported, tongue - swiss cut, cooked, soaked and simmered
Tongue cut in the Swiss style, then soaked and slowly simmered, produces a richly flavored piece of meat that is considerably fattier than most lamb muscle cuts. The collagen-rich connective tissue breaks down through long moist cooking, giving cooked tongue its characteristic smooth, almost silky texture. It is protein-forward but carries a notable fat load compared to lean chops or loin. Serve it sliced thin, cold or warm, and it rewards the effort of preparation.
