I've never had it.

But I've wanted to try it ever since seeing it on Doug.

If I ever see it on a restaurant menu, I'll order it. But no restaurants serve it. Guess I gotta make it myself.

>>7402683

I always tried to order it when I saw it on a menu growing up, but for some reason my mom would never let me. She also fed me liverwurst and mayo sandwiches since I was 4, so I'm still confused to this day about what the problem was.

>>7402652
With bacon please.

>>7402688
Liverwurst isn't liver, its disgusting.

But honestly, it was probably the onions.

>>7402692

I'm positive being given shitty liverwurst sandwiches from a young age is why liver is my favorite offal. I'd agree it's not the same - despite being pretty much the same - but it's all about enjoying the flavor of an ingredient; after you've found something you enjoy you can try it in other things with more of an open mind. That's the problem with picky eaters: they'll eat a shitty tomato and decide they're never going to put a tomato in their mouth's ever again.

I also wasn't a very picky eater as a kid, and loved onions.

>>7402652
Is OP cooking along as he posts?
Has he died when his oil slick filled pan caught on fire and and set him ablaze when he tried to put it out with water?

Replace onion with garlic and we have a deal. Best things is short of overcooking it, which is how some people like it because they can't stand blood, it's so simple you can't really fuck it up.

What does liver taste like? What is it's texture? How does it smell?

>>7403050
Liver tastes of liver. It has a fairly unique taste, very iron-ish.

Texture depends on how it was cooked. Undercooked it is rubbery. Overcooked it becomes grainy and leathery. Just perfectly done (medium rare to medium) it is soft and tender.

>>7402733
Post it OP.

>>7403050
It tastes like rich, bloody, super tender, slightly spongy meat. Its got a bit of an off flavor if you eat beef liver, but calf liver is milder. You can soften the flavor of beef liver by soaking it in milk for a little while before cooking; say an couple of hours.

>>7402728
That looks disgustingly unappealing. Liver does not deserve such treatment.

Yeah, but that's exactly like soaking shark meat in milk - you COULD do it to remove some of the acidic taste, but why the fuck are you even eating shark meat at that point then? You need to taste the flavor of the main ingredient you're using and not drench it in something else or eliminate its native flavor.

>>7403065
>medium rare meme applied to liver
No words.

>>7403079
You can basically eat liver however you want, from just flashing it on both sides for 10 seconds so it gets seared to a point it has just a thin stripe of red in the middle. It really depends on how thick your slices are, though.

>>7403079
For someone who has never had liver it's a good visual of what they should have on their plate.

>>7403078
What a weirdly puritannical attidue. What if you like the flavor, just not at full power?

>>7402683
We have these golden nugget places that all serve it in Chicago

>>7403078

Because other people in the world have tastes that differ from yours. If you want people to get into trying and tasting this ingredient you seem to care for greatly, then allowing them to start with something milder would be a good place to start.

>>7402683

>see a little cup of chicken livers
>decide to make liver and onions because i've heard about it in some cartoons when I was young, usually portrayed as a disgusting entree (like meatloaf or chipped beef)
>caramelize onions in butter and oil
>fry livers in salt, pepper
>5 minutes later, can't wait to eat
>it tastes like dog food, all mushy and grainy with that disgusting bitter ironey flavor
>no perspectives were shifted that day

>>7402728
>Ends up posting a shitty pic of the meal because he has to have muh beer in the foreground to fit in.
And i thought you were cool OP.

>>7405440
liver and onions isn't made with chicken livers

>>7402688
>but for some reason my mom would never let me
Mom knew you'd take one bite, spit it out and refuse to eat anymore, thus wasting her money and life on you.

>>7406828
To be honest, I think dog food is.

>>7406832

>mom wouldn't let you order liver in restaurant
>frequently feeds you liver at home

>>7402934

>>7407203
