Veal, or beef tongue, when done right, is very tender, juicy and delicious. I served it with some homemade bok choy pesto, but you can use other pesto or even salsa verde.

Veal tongue is high in fat, and like other organ meats, it is very nutrient dense (an excellent source of vitamin B12, zinc, iron and selenium). It has a unique, but mild flavour, tastes like muscle meat, fleshy, firm, but so much more tender and succulent. The tongue has a thick, bumpy skin and once cooked, it must be peeled while it's still warm. Don't let the meat cool too much, as the skin will stick.

	Bok Choy Arugula Pesto
1 Veal tongue (approximately 1.5kg) �angiesrecipes, rinsed 1 Onion, peeled and chopped 2 Broccoli stalks, roughly chopped 3-5 Fennel stalks 2-3 Bay leaves 10 Juniper berries Parsley stems Sea salt	50 g Pine nuts, toasted 1 Large garlic clove 50 g Arugula 70 g Bok choy, the green leaves only 30 g Parmesan cheese, grated 1 tsp Black rock salt 120-150 ml Olive oil, as needed

1. In a food processor, combine the toasted pine nuts, garlic, arugula, bok choy leaves, Parmesan, and 1 tsp salt and pulse to blend. With the machine running, pour in the olive oil through the food tube in a slow, steady stream and process until smooth, stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed. Taste and adjust the seasonings.
2. Rinse the veal tongue under running water until the water runs clear and there�s no blood.
   Place veal tongue, onion, broccoli, fennel stalks, bay leaves, juniper berries, and parsley stems in your slow cooker. Generously season with sea salt. Pour in enough water to cover the veal tongue.
3. Cook on Low for 8 hours or on high for 4-5 hours. Transfer veal tongue to a work surface and cool slightly. Peel the thick outer layer of skin off the veal tongue while it is still warm.
4. To serve, cut the veal tongue crosswise into thin slices, and arrange on a platter in a single layer. Spoon the pesto sauce over and top with some fresh herbs, a generous drizzle of olive oil and some crushed red peppercorns.
