My mother routinely made it with mashed potatoes. The theory was that we

could cut it up and hide it in the potatoes....thereby not noticing the nasty

taste and texture. I can say...it does not work. Bacon and onions don't do it

either. I can think of so many better ways to get the iron and other stuff

that liver offers. kim O

I could never stand the thought of liver until I hit my 40's, same

with spinach. Now, I like both. But, since WLS, I can only eat

chopped spinach. Whole spinach is just too hard to chew up

well...the cooked kind, that is. Anyone else have that problem?

OMGosh, I love liver ... especially since surgery. My husband buys lamb

liver ... it tastes so much 'cleaner' than beef liver (which I absolutely

detest).

He fries it in a little olive oil - no breading - with onions and some

chopped garlic, salt, pepper to taste ... yummmmmm! I never liked liver until

he

fixed lamb liver for me. Chicken livers are good too - still no breading -

cooked the same way.

The liver he buys is from lamb that are fed on small farms and killed a

certain way - the meat is so flavorful, not like the mass produced stuff you

find

in chain grocery stores. Maybe that's the secret. D

ROFL! I have never, ever liked liver. I had a boyfriend after college who

had been a chef's assistant in a 4-star restaurant in Tehran, Iran. That boy

could make sauces that were utterly exquisite. But he could not make a sauce

that would hide the taste of liver from me. He tried everything, because he

loved liver and wanted me to enjoy it too. I had some fantastic sauces, but

that first bite of liver -- ew.

I did learn a lot about herbs and spices and such from him, though!

I love liver. It was my last dinner before my original WLS. I specially

requested it from my Mother...with boiled potatoes and spinach! I just

ignore what live does when it isn't cooked, just like I don't want to know

what is in hotdogs or bologna! LOL

You definitely have a point there, I hadn't thought about it.

And, sometimes, I just have a craving for chopped chicken liver on a

cracker. It's so true, sometimes we don't know what's in half of

what we eat.

Chopped chicken livers with a bit of rendered chicken fat...throw in

some chopped onion and salt spread generously on the thinnest lowest

carb cracker and bingo...one of my favorite protein treats.

Oy...you would think this 'lil Italian was Jewish!

Yep, the less I know the better especially with hotdogs and bologna.

I just ignore what liver does when it isn't cooked,

---------------------------------

Sorry, some things just can't be ignored. The morning after my mother

would roast a chicken, my father would make chicken liver and eggs.

Could not stand waking up to that smell. My brothers and I used to beg

her for chicken cutlets. She thought for the longest time that we loved

her cutlets, then she finally caught on, but by then we were old enough

to say either we're not going to eat dinner or we'll have a peanut

butter sandwich.

There are a few things that I won't cook in this house and Tim loves

them so he orders them while we're out, liver, lamb, duck, venison and

his new favorite buffalo burgers. If he wants them bad enough, he'll

wait until I have plans with friends to go out to dinner and he will

pick something up on the way home and make it for himself. I'll never do

it. : )

Ok, I was with you on the other ones, mostly because they have such a

distinctive smell, but what's up with the buffalo? It just smells like lean

beef, and tastes like sirloin. Does it have an odd smell to you? I love

everything except the liver, but I will admit they smell different when

you're not used to cooking them. But buffalo -- heck, if I could afford it,

I would only eat buffalo instead of beef. It's like the best cut of beef,

even as burger -- and has way less fat and cholesterol.

I have to say, beef is NOT my friend. However, I LOVE Buffalo! It makes the

BEST chili and the BEST buffalo burgers. Can't eat a lot of it, because it

is dense like beef. It sure tastes better!!!! And is so much leaner.
