Cooking instruction summary:

Procedures 1 To make the marinade, puree the onions and garlic in a food processor until finely chopped. Transfer to a mixing bowl and add the rest of the ingredients for the marinade. Add a few tablespoons of water if necessary so that the marinade is thick paste. 2 Place the tongue in a nonreactive pan and coat with the marinade. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 24 hours and up to 3 days. 3 Preheat the oven to 275. Place the tongue in a small glass, ceramic, or clay baking dish or other vessel that will accommodate the tongue without too much room leftover on the sides. Spoon the marinade over the tongue and add the braising liquid. Cover the dish with foil or a lid. Braise for 3 hours or until tongue is fork tender. 4 Remove the dish from the oven and let cool slightly. Cut the tongue into slices and arrange on a platter with the sauce spooned over the slices. Add extra red or green chile sauce, if desired. Serve with posole, potatoes, or a starch of your choosing.

Food Joke

Concerned husband goes to see the family doctor and says, "I think my wife is deaf because she never hears me the first time I say something, in fact, I often have to repeat things over and over again." "Well," the doctor replies, "go home and tonight and stand about 15 feet from her and say something. If she doesn't reply, move about five feet closer and say it again. Keep doing this so we can get an idea about the severity of her deafness." Sure enough, the husband goes home and does exactly as instructed. He starts off about 15 feet from his wife in the kitchen and as she is chopping some vegetables, he says, "Honey, what's for dinner?" He gets no response. He moves about five feet closer and asks again. No reply. He moves five feet closer. Still no reply. He gets fed up and moves right behind her, about an inch away, and asks again, "Honey, what's for dinner?" She replies, "For the fourth time, vegetable stew!"
