Boil a fresh beef-tongue in the soup-stock for one hour and a half. Skin it, then place it on a dish, adding one pint of Gendarme garnishing, made by pouring a pint of Madeira sauce (No. 185) into a saucepan. Put it on the hot stove, and add twelve small godiveau quenelles (No. 221). Cut up six small, sound pickles, four mushrooms, and two ounces of smoked beef-tongue; add these to the sauce, and let cook for five minutes, stirring it lightly, then serve.
The same as for the above, No. 532. When the tongue is ready, decorate it with pickles, and serve with a pint of sauce piquante (No. 203) separate, instead of the other garnishing.
The same as for No. 532, adding one pint of hot Napolitaine garnishing (No. 195), instead of the other garnishing.
