I don't like thin liver. You can't cook it very long without it tasting like shoe leather. The best way I found to cook beef liver and add flavor to it is to buy thicker beef liver (3/4" - 1") add salt & pepper and garlic salt then dust with flour and set aside. Fry Hickery Smoked bacon until crispy (4 - 7 slices according to thickness) remove bacon and add 2 large onions, cut into 1/2" slices, (I prefer the sweet white onions but yellow onions are okay to use) fry the onions until they begin to soften, remove from pan then add the beef liver to the bacon grease, brown on both sides. Add enough water to pan to almost cover the liver. Cover the pan and cook on low heat for about 15 minutes and the water is looking like a gravy. Remove the liver and onions and continue cooking down the gravy. (mix 1 tbs of flour with a little water to take out any lumps and add to gravy to thick it, if desired) Serve liver with real mashed pototes, pour gravy over pototes and the liver (garnish with crumbled bacon) and a vegtable (I like it with green beans). Everyone that's had my liver & onions said, "It's the best they've ever eaten." Not too strong tasting and so tender it almost melts in your mouth. Enjoy!

Tasting ordorless, tender pork liver is one of the rarest moment of my life and one of my greatest food epiphanies. It is one of the hardest dish that I've yet to master. I think one of my theories is that it has to be consumed within 6 hours of the animal being slaughtered, best if cooked on the spot. More than that the blood in the liver would "marinate" it to the point where it just stinks beyond repair. I discovered this when I bought a fresh liver in the morning, cooked half in the afternoon and another half for dinner. The dinner version tasted so strong I had to throw it out. I think this is because once the animal died the liver stopped its cleansing function and any remaining blood and liquid left in it is left to decay rapidly.

Cut partially-frozen liver into chunks the size of a pea, then thaw out however many you want, then take them as "liver shooters" like taking a pill, chased with a pleasant-tasting liquid. This prevents destroying anything good in the liver with heat, plus, your body will digest it raw more swiftly than if it were cooked. Thus, eating raw liver chunks is a win-win without the nasty taste.

Hi Chris, I have some concerns about marinating the liver. I know traditionally liver have been soaked in milk prior to cooking (at least my mother was doing that). But I was wondering if the calcium in milk could prevent iron absorption, as it is recommended not to eat calcium rich food with iron rich food at the same meal (especially in the case of anemia) . Similarly, could an acidic marinade (like vinegar or lemon juice) could oxidize the iron in the liver and render it less beneficial. Thanks
@chrismasterjohn7 жыл бұрын
I don't understand why acid would oxidize iron. The calcium is unlikely to be present in concentrations anywhere near high enough to cause a meaningful effect on iron absorption.

Liver is not all the same. 1. For example, chicken liver is very low in copper, and the main reason I eat liver is for the bio-copper. Eat chicken liver only and don't expect a depleted ceruloplasmin-bound copper (Cp-Cu) status to reregulate. And since ferro-oxidase is an expression of Cp-Cu, don't expect your body to be able to take Fe-3 iron out of the macrophages vis transferrin to take it back to the bone marrow.mitochondria. IOW, your reticulo-endothelial recycling system breaks down. And don't expect macrophages to function well when they are loaded with Fe-3 (ferrous iron). 2. Non-GMO grass fed/finished liver from properly cared for animals free of chronic stress is what you really want, and you will likely have to look for it. Also, cook either in water or clarified butter in order to avoid burning oxidants that your body then has to spend energy addressing resolving it.
