Making Lambs Livers palatable ?
Hi Any ideas on how to make lambs liver tasty or disguise to taste? . Apart from blending it up and necking, it I have yet to find a way of making it palatable .

Thanks I will look at that, needs to something that disguises the taste for me: Was put of Liver at school, being served up a grey lump of overcooked, dried out liver. But I realise that it is great source of bioavalable B12 and many other nutrients. Pretty cheap protein as well .

Offal is cheap but it has to be cooked well and right. Good luck mate, let me know how you get on. I like chicken livers, fry them in garlic butter with some seasoning and add as a side to a main meal. Cheap and full of goodness.

One of the few areas of cuisine I'm fairly well versed in. Either Mustard or Lemon Juice will remove most, if not all the 'rank' taste, I used to use both but maybe one was counteracting the other - try a marinade using one, then another using both, and see which works best. Obviously use a strong main flavouring to ensure as much of the rankness is overpowered. I found I could never entirely eliminate it, but got it down to negligible/manageable levels.

Cheers, its just that I rashley bought a load of Lambs liver on a very good offer. The main reason for me is that they are a great source of Bio-available B vitamins and Iron. Going to try these recipes out as blending them up and necking them seems a bit uncouth; although effective.

Blending liver, ew!!! One of my favourite foods. What is it about the taste you don't like? Try stir frying with lots of onion, mushrooms, sun dried tomato and a bit of garlic and chilli. Aubergine is also good. You can also use it in a fajita recipe instead of chicken, just eat without the wraps if you don't need the carbs. Both recipes here; http://nuutrii.com/recipes/search/liver

Of course man, we make it every time that we have the opportunity. I think the secret for good liver, is to cook it by turning it many many times and leaving it to fry for a tiny amount of time at each turn.At least for beef liver, but IMO applies to lamb too.

Just tastes strong to me, as i said before I was put off the stuff having badly cooked liver given to me at school. I keep trying it out but always struggle to get it down, thanks for all the suggestions Guys I will let you know how I do with them.
