So, what is blood tongue?
Blood tongue is a meat product that is derived from the tongue of an animal, typically a cow or a pig. The tongue is cooked and then thinly sliced, creating a unique texture that is both tender and slightly chewy. The addition of blood to the cooking process gives the meat a deep red color and a distinct flavor that is both rich and savory. Blood tongue is a traditional delicacy in many cultures, and it is often used as a component in charcuterie boards or as a filling for sandwiches and other savory dishes.
