BEEF TONGUES (BOILED). — Dress the tongues directly they are taken from the pickle, or if they have remained there long throw them into cold water for three or four hours until they are soft ; then bring them gently to a boil, and simmer until tender. Remove the scum as it rises, and when they are half done throw in a good-sized bunch of sweet herbs. Time, about five hours
