How Long is Pork Tongue Boiled for?

Pork tongue is an extremely tasty appetizer that goes well with both homemade brandy and well-chilled white wine. You will not go wrong if you have it as an appetizer while drinking red wine.

Pork tongue is easy to boil and takes far less time than beef tongue. Once the pork tongue is cooked, you can make pork tongue in butter or breaded pork tongue from it.

The time a pork tongue needs to boil varies depending on whether you are boiling it in a regular pot or using a pressure cooker.

Boiling pork tongue in a regular saucepan takes about 90-120 minutes. You would know that the tongue is boiled well when you can easily prick it up with a fork and take it out. Boiling it in a pressure cooker takes about 45-50 minutes, as long as the pig whose tongue you are cooking is not older.

Boiled pork tongue should be immediately immersed in a bowl of cold water and then peeled thoroughly. What you do with it after peeling it is a matter of choice and taste, but we highly recommend you try our recipe for pork tongue terrine.
