Properly prepared beef tongue is tender, nutritious and delicious. Beef tongue is a solid muscle containing no fat and no connective tissue, so that dishes with beef tongue are easy to digest. Furthermore, beef tongue is really healthy: It contains large amounts of protein, zinc and iron as well as the entire spectrum of B vitamins.
