Creamed Tongue

As I was growing up, my parents had a few sheep, their own cow and also calves.

Often times I would open the refrigerator door and 

see a beef tongue staring at me.

I don't ever remembering eating any tongue, but someone must have or they

wouldn't have saved it in the refrigerator.

From my Grandmother Rigby's Recipe book I found a recipe for

Tongue with Cream Sauce.  

Here it is:

Use canned tongue which comes in glass jars and heat it in a cream sauce.

Make cream sauce by thickening two cupfuls milk with 4 tablespoons full of 

flour and seasoning with 1 1/2 teaspoons full of salt and 3 tablespoons full of 

butter or butter substitute.
