1156—Langue de Bœuf aux Fèves
Tongue intended for this preparation should be put in salt a few days in advance.
Boil it in the usual way and very gently; glaze it when about to serve, and dish it. Send to the table separately (1) a timbale of very fresh, skinned, broad beans, cooked in salted water with a spray of savory, and cohered with butter at the last moment.
(2) A Madeira sauce.
