I ordered beef tongue and while thawing it in cold water last night, I noticed the package had a hole in it. When I received the beef tongue the color was not good.

The portion size is quite large; I've bought it several times. I previously paired it with cold noodles and grilled beef tongue, and it was delicious.

Kdashweee
I was worried because some reviews mentioned poor color, but everything was a beautiful color. I cooked it in a frying pan! I overcooked it and it shrunk a bit, but since it was originally very thin, it didn't get tough, and it still had the chewy texture of beef tongue, which was delicious. There was quite a lot in the package. I thought I could thaw it in the refrigerator at lunchtime and have it for dinner, but some parts were still frozen, so I think it's better to thaw it in the morning!

The meat was a little tough. I guess beef tongue tastes better when it's thinly sliced.
Hana
The skinless beef tongue is really considerate, and it is still very good in terms of price. After all, it takes a lot of time and energy to buy a beef tongue yourself. Housewives love it most for its convenient and quick dishes.

All of these meat is hard to chew. Waste my money to expecting they’re good . But they are not tender at all.

In my opinion, Palm corned beef is the best corned beef. It’s chunky, juicy, (does not have a lot of fat) and very tasty. It can be used as in sandwiches, with noodles, rice etc. . If you are a corned beef lover, this is the one to get. The can I receive has a long shelf life, 2029. Here I sauteed it with onions, garlic, bell peppers, tomatoes and cilantro. This was served with brown rice as one meal; with boiled green bananas with sauteed vegetables, Malabar spinach, and steamed chayote. This meal was enjoyed by the entire family.

This was one of our staples but recently stopped purchasing it since its price kept going up. Glad it was on sale this week!
