I originally did not know there was a difference in livers. I only knew about beef liver and rice. One day I discovered calf liver. Once I tried it, I immediately could taste and see the difference. Calf liver is so tender that it almost melts in your mouth. Now beef liver is not quite so tender even though it is good also.


Since I am not a big rice eater, I decided to try calf liver, onions, gravy, and mashed potatoes. That tasted so gooooooooood!!!!! I just cannot tell it all.

In my 20's I used to eat liver medicinally, but couldn't bear to cook it so I would order it whenever I ate in a restaurant. It elicited some interesting comments from my friends!

I enjoyed this post. I know so many people can't stand the thought of liver and onions. For me it was something I grew up with and loved the fried onions, the liver not so much. When I had my pregnancies and started having iron deficiency issues I started cooking and eating liver and onions and found out I actually do enjoy eating the liver now even though I'm the only one in my house who will eat it.
