Limbă cu măsline is a traditional stew based on beef tongue and olives. The stew typically consists of slices of cooked beef tongue stewed with tomato sauce and pitted olives. It is usually seasoned with lemon juice and a handful of freshly chopped parsley or chives. Soft and juicy slices of beef tongue topped with an aromatic and robust tomato sauce with olives make for a classic Romanian dish, commonly eaten as an appetizer on festive occasions, such as New Year’s Eve. Served both hot and cold, the stew is usually accompanied by mashed potatoes, rice, pasta, or bread.
