    I love tongue, but I’ve never made it at home. This really makes me want to try making it, keep up the great work!

  5. posporomaker Says:

    This is really healthy for you and not gonna kill you with its trans fats content. And it’s not like eating a tongue’s gonna repulse anyone. So good job.

    I’m glad I could help.

    We like liver, too, although Humphrey likes it the most.

    Thanks for the great suggestions! Mongolian Beef is delicious. We’re thinking of taking a stab at some Chinese or Japanese food soon – maybe some tempura?

    In the meantime, check out our Bo Ssam episode – we make a Korean-style pork shoulder.

    Thanks!

    I’m glad you told us that! Red Hook is one of the neighborhoods we’re considering moving to…now it’s got bonus points.

  9. palebluedot Says:

    Dood. Anybody living in NYC MUST go to Red Hook. There are about a dozen food trucks serving awesome food. Try to get the pupusas with loroco flowers and chiccharones. Ugh. Soooo good. And bring a picnic blanket to wait out your food coma. I ate like a king for ten bucks. GLORIOUS.

  11. mztadobolina Says:

    ugh… I really like this show, but I can’t even imagine eating a tongue… but Im a vegetarian, so… I might be a tad bias

  12. karlalovejoy Says:

    I love making my own tacos de lengua. And I love adding the Avocado and Tomatillo salsa.

    I’m glad someone decided to make a video about this meat and the preperation of it. All you ever see is Orzo stuffed peppers or something. I don’t eat that but I do eat Tacos de Lengua!

  13. iSUSHIXD Says:

  14. sbhuiyan Says:

  16. angelicdreamer Says:

    Ooh! I love this episode! I am a Mexican and this is the way that my family makes tacos de lengua. I also love liver! it is so delicious, I do not know why so many people are grossed out when they here it is made out of liver or tongue.

    Can you guys make Mongolian Beef? or some Chinese,/Japanese dish? I would really love to see how you guys would cook or make the dish?

  17. therealoracle Says:

    people get grossed out when they see the cow tongue but no lie, its the best part or the cow! I love cow tongue tacos! with lime and onions and cilantro.

  18. MEX0688 Says:

    Tacos De Lengua are so delicious! I know of only 1 place in south minneapolis that has the best tongue tacos I’ve had. This video really inspires me to make these now!

    Thanks!

  19. rizalyaakub Says:

  20. malcalas Says:

    HOla I just want to say that the secreat for mexican food is garlic and onions… specially when you cook meat

  21. angiersj Says:

    Wow, I just looked where Max was from in Florida on the Hungry Nation website, and it turns out he’s from Sarasota, which is where I live…. cool.

  22. L3N3SANDOVAL Says:

  23. wcfoodies Says:

    Hi there! Thanks for the great comment! :)

    We’ve never tried sesos tacos, but that does sound really good. Maybe a trip to Mexico’s in our future!

    Keep watching the show, and thanks for being a fan. :)

  24. xrxsxbx10 Says:

    Great Video, im from Mexico, you can find tongue tacos on every taqueria (mexican word for taco restaurant) but your recipe really makes me want to go to NY and try one of those, i loved the way you reconstructed a classic mex favorite, have you tried “sesos taco” (brains) those are delicious!

    I love the show, keep up the good work and greetings from mexico :) !

  25. wcfoodies Says:

    They are a little weird to touch when they still have the skin on, but the flavor makes it so worth it. Try a tongue taco or a tongue sandwich at a deli and see if you like it.
