Ingredients

2 servings

¼ lb beef tongue slices ((you can buy it in a Japanese supermarket))
1 Tbsp yuzu kosho (Japanese citrus chili paste)
1 Tbsp soy sauce
½ Tbsp sake
½ Tbsp toasted sesame oil
½ tsp yuzu juice (extract) ((or lemon juice))
freshly ground black pepper
⅛ onions ((optional))

Instructions

Before you start: Please note that this recipe requires at least 30 minutes to marinate the meat. Gather all the ingredients.
Combine all the seasonings in a small bowl: 1 Tbsp yuzu kosho (Japanese citrus chili paste), 1 Tbsp soy sauce, ½ Tbsp sake, ½ Tbsp toasted sesame oil, ½ tsp yuzu juice (extract), and freshly ground black pepper. Whisk it together.
Spread a bit of the seasoning sauce on the bottom of a shallow container like a baking dish.
Spread ¼ lb beef tongue slices in a single layer (try not to overlap the slices). Then, pour the rest of the sauce on top of the meat.
If you'd like, you can grate ⅛ onion on top of the tongue slices. Marinate the beef tongue for at least 30 minutes. Don't over-marinate since the meat will become too salty.
Start the grill, preferably over charcoal.
Grill on high heat for 1–2 minutes.
Flip the meat and cook for another 1–2 minutes. Serve immediately with a small amount of yuzu kosho on the side.
You can keep the leftovers in an airtight container and store in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
