When properly cleaned and quickly cooked, lamb lung has a light, airy, slightly spongy texture. Overcooking can make it chewy and tougher to eat.
The lung should be thoroughly trimmed and cleaned, then cooked briefly over high heat. Cumin, black pepper, chilli, onion, and lemon help balance its distinctive offal flavour.
Parsley, onion, tomato, sumac, and lemon add freshness to the spicy filling. Ayran or another unsweetened drink can also help balance heat and richness.
Lung has a lighter, more porous texture than chunks of lamb or beef and a more pronounced offal taste. The final flavour and mouthfeel also depend greatly on the seasoning, oil, and cooking time.
Because it can be spicy and contains added fat, it may feel uncomfortable immediately before hard training. It can work occasionally as a post-workout meal when paired with vegetables and adequate fluids.
Spices, onion, and oil may trigger reflux, indigestion, or thirst in some people when eaten late. A smaller serving with less chilli is often more comfortable close to bedtime.
Cooked tantuni is best eaten promptly. If leftovers are cooled quickly and refrigerated in a sealed container, they should generally be eaten within 1–2 days after reheating thoroughly.
The cooked lung filling can be frozen separately in an airtight container. It is better to add fresh lavash, onion, and tomato after thawing, since these ingredients lose their texture in the freezer.
Offal should come from a reliable source and be cooked all the way through, as undercooked offal can raise the risk of foodborne illness. Pregnant people, immunocompromised people, and those with sensitive digestion should take particular care with hygiene and thorough cooking.
It is a prepared dish that combines cleaned and cooked lung with lavash, oil, seasonings, and often sauces. Salt and added fat can vary widely by vendor, so it is best eaten as part of an overall varied diet with plenty of vegetables.
