beef is cow

Niggas don't soak liver before they cook it
Also yes Americans have a strong anti offal culture

Americans literally invented eating beef liver. It is a quintessential blue plate special at any good diner.

>>16979665
why the fuck are you faggots eating liver?

>>16979690
What I meant is the majority of people eating beef but somehow pussying out when it comes to the liver

>beef liver
>is bird or cow
>cow
What did the ESL mean by this?

>>16979715
Ah yes, the traditional AMERICAN meal...liver and onions.

>>16979722
>muh semantics
It's just liver, calm down, mutt.

>>16979716
Take a chicken breast, a slab of beef and liver. Season them all the exact same way and liver would still have the most flavor. I don't know why niggers don't even want to try liver when it's clearly superior

>>16979719
plenty of people eat liver. it borderlines on uncommon but it isn't quite there yet. it's more popular with older people. if I had to pick a number out of my ass I would say 1 in 10 people under the age of 30 eat liver. probably like 1 in 4 people over the age of 40.

>>16979665
disregard anons, acquire liverwurst

>>16979736
NTA but I think you're grossly overestimating those figures, at least as far as NA is concerned. I guess it also depends what you mean by "eating liver". Does pâté count? What about people that will eat it out of politeness but will never ever seek it out or purchase it on their own?

not him, but you can find beef liver at every supermarket it's common, hell I can get calf liver (10x better) at walmart.

Over 30, eats liver because it has a lower price than all the other packages on the rack

>>16979763
yeah there'a always a few packages of liver and kidneys in the meat section of even medium sized grocery stores, someone's buying it

>>16979763
of course you can, but it doesn't mean it's commonly purchased. I'm admittedly talking out of my ass, I have no idea, but if you consider the liver to meat yield on a beef carcass, then consider that some of it surely ends up in pet food, then consider how many people a neighborhood supermarket serves, the 3 packages of liver you see at the store does not in any way indicate that people commonly eat liver. Which, mind you, is fine by me, it keeps costs down

>>16979716
I tried my best to like liver, cooking it with mushrooms and onions and what not, but liver mush is incredible, it's a good way to get the nutrients of liver without the taste and texture

>>16980379
I kind of like plain liver but I get sick of the taste after like four bites. Not sure if that's because I don't really need all the iron it has or maybe I just haven't had good quality liver prepared properly. But liverwurst is good too, it's kind of like bologna with a little bit of a stronger flavor, but it's really good on rye bread with some swiss cheese, pickles, onions, and mustard.

>>16979715
I want this IMMEDIATELY with a black coffee in a diner where you can smoke

>>16980379
is it pre-cooked? regardless, you just cut a slice and pan fry it, right? seems based

>>16979736
>it's more popular with older people.
The government used to shill eating liver esoecially to pregnant women.

It tastes like shit, and I don't mean that metaphorically.

>>16980467
You do just fry it a minute or so on each side

the liver is what digests toxic garbage out of your bloodstream. you're basically eating the body's equivalent of a trash fire. also it's got a bunch of veins and bile tubes all through it. 0/1/ food

Liver tastes exactly like stomach bile. The smell and flavor of liver is exactly the same as the lingering taste of vomit in your mouth, unironically. You literally just like the flavor of human sick. Why don't you just go lick up someone's barf off the floor?

Liver regardless of animal has the texture of poop

Well I eat it maybe thrice a year, but I like the bloody taste and some older animals are nice and chewy. It's a very special meal because it's a single organ so you don't get a lot when slaughtering. You've got to change it up a little so you get more of the different nutrients.

>>16979665
I've been to this local food restaurant near me and had liver there a few times, tried making it but it hasn't turned out so well for me. The restaurant has liver, potato mash, peas, lingonberry jam with bacon, and that bacon really helps that liver go down.

its delicious, you child.

>>16979665
Because /fit/ eats sugary protein bars, sucralose sweetened preworkouts, cotton candy flavored energy drinks, lives on diet sodas and their tastebuds can't cope with the complex and natural flavor of a real man's food.

>>16983544
i will lose my shit if they push liver prices up, i go through at least 3 trays of homemade leverpostej every week

>>16983571
post recipe

Anybody eat it raw though? I'm not trying to go full raw carnivore, but maybe just for liver vitamins.

>>16983628
jesus christ hannibal calm down

>>16983630
I was just throwing ideas out. I wasn't really going to eat raw liver, because eating raw liver is kinda crazy?

>>16983638
that isn't how you use question marks

>>16983628
only if you just killed the animal

>acquire meatgrinder
>put a pound of liver, half a pound of fatback or lard, and 2 roughly chopped onions through it
>run it back through until desired smoothness is achieved (i like it rough)
>add 3 eggs, 250mils of milk, three tablespoons of flour, salt and pepper to taste (1 teaspoon salt ½ teaspoon pepper is a fine rule of thumb)
>mix that shit
>pour into foil trays
>put trays in ovenproof pan, fill pan with water halfway up the trays
>bake at 350F for 25 minutes
you can freeze the portioned out trays and bake as needed.
can be enjoyed cold or heated up, goes well on dense bread.
top with pickled beets, crispy bacon, fresh cucumber slices, or some red onion, sky's the limit.

i can confirm that beef, pork, and deer liver work, cannot confirm chicken, but im betting it'd be good.

>>16983689
oh shit im a retard i forgot the best topping of all.
fried mushrooms

>>16983689
wait i fucked up, that should be 35 minutes.

>>16983544
I think the taste will put them off and prevent this.

>>16979665
Liver is an acquired taste, I like it's taste but I don't eat it very often. Chicken Liver is my favorite, just grill em with some good oils and seasoning.

liver is good every once in a while but these anons who talk about eating a whole pound of it on the regular are going to develop cholesterol problems and give themselves vitamins A and B12 poisoning

>>16979665
By now you should've learned to completely disregard anything /fit/ says about cooking.

>>16981133
What do you mean shill? It's actually a good thing for pregnant women.

I eat grass-fed beef liver from a butcher within 1-2 days of buying it (very important to get raw meat from a trusted source). You'll feel a natural high the next day, truly an amazing feeling.
Easy way to eat it is to dice it small and only chew a little before swallowing. If it's super fresh it surprisingly won't taste or smell that strong, certainly not as much as cooked liver.

Thoughts on liver cubes? I might try it out.

I have tried beef liver but it tasted like how a barn yard smells. the only liver I like is lamb liver, lamb liver with onions and gravy + mashed potato, delicious.

>>16979726
I think it's the texture that's the most off-putting part about liver

>>16983628
Try it out

Agreed but she's eating liver so I'll give it a pass

>>16986374
have you tried soaking them in butter milk?

>>16982869
Liver tastes like blood you idiot. Heavy iron flavor. Bile has its own distinct flavor. At least be accurate if you're going to bitch.
>t. former alcoholic who threw up bile every morning

>>16988013
No i havnt

texture of chalk

>>16988836
That's overcooked liver. Try it medium rare and it will be juicy.
