John C. Dvorak recounts a failed attempt to cook a beef tongue purchased from a Chinese butcher, noting that his initial cooking time of 75 minutes was insufficient for the tough meat. After realizing the error, he ended up cooking it for an additional ten hours. He plans to refine the recipe using a tongue from a whole animal in the future.
