What kind of meat is this & what meals can you make?

The image shows Beef Tongue, which is a tender and flavorful meat when prepared correctly. In Morocco, this is often served as a “Mcharmel” dish (in a thick, spiced tomato or garlic sauce).

Here is how to prepare it in English:

🍲 Moroccan Braised Beef Tongue (Mcharmel)

Beef tongue requires a two-step process: boiling to remove the skin, and then slow-cooking in a sauce.

Step 1: The Essential Cleaning (Peeling)

You cannot eat the rough outer skin of the tongue.

  1. Place the tongue in a large pot of boiling water with a splash of vinegar and 2 bay leaves.
  2. Boil for about 20–30 minutes.
  3. Remove the tongue and, while it is still hot, use a knife to peel off the thick white/grey skin. It should come off easily. If it cools down, the skin will stick again.
  4. Slice the peeled tongue into rounds or cubes.
