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.
1. Statistics

strengthsense.com 80 percent of the daily recommended daily value

B vitamins, and iron that is needed for wound healing, immune
function, and manufacture of DNA. Yes this is according to

3. Different Ways
to Cook Liver

Livestrong.com you can cook liver a variety of ways such as liver and

Meatloaf
Charles Duhigg talks
in his book about how there was a time that liver was not a popular

would put bits of liver in meatloaf in order to get this healthy
food delivered to their family.

I not much of a liver eater, but you make me want to try calf liver. Thanks for sharing this information. I found you on the Tune it Thursday linkup.
ReplyDeleteIn 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!
ReplyDeleteI 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.
