No. 40 Ox-Tongue

Get a pickled tongue, run an iron skewer through from one end to the other, tie a string from one end of skewer to the other, so as to make it keep its shape; put the tongue on the fire in cold water; let it boil gently for three hours, then take up, and after removing the outward cuticle or skin, place in larder to cool; trim neatly, wrap in a piece of buttered paper, put it in an oval stewpan with a little broth; ¾ of an hour before sending to table, put the tongue in oven or on slow fire to get warmed through, then glaze it and dish it up with some prepared spinach round it; pour a little sauce and serve.
