  5. CW: food, non-veg, offal

    I stumbled upon a recipe in a Tess Mallous book on middle eastern cooking, İç Pilav, and last night I made it. İç means "inside" in Turkish and the insides I used last night were chicken livers. Apparently lamb liver also works.

    I made the pilaf with Arborio rice; in Türkiye they use Baldo rice, which is essentially the same. Lovely fat grains soaking up all the flavour.

    A big part of the flavour is toasted pine nuts. Lovely toasty and crunchy, I added to the bowls as a garnish with chopped onion greens. Ground cinnamon and allspice, and cracked black pepper provided the spice in the pilaf.

    Pushing the "insides" theme further, my chicken stock came from cooking chicken hearts for the next fortnight's lunch noodle soups.

    DW was a little challenged by the flavour of the chicken livers, so not sure I'd stick so close to the recipe next time. But I thought it was a very nice pilaf, and a good way to use chicken livers.

  13. CW: food, offal, not GF

    Pretty much every day for lunch, I cook a simple noodle soup. I like to add some chicken bits, and it's usually cooked chicken hearts (my Woolworths has them).

    Today I found myself without a heart, and at Coles (for reasons) which does not stock chicken hearts but does stock gizzards, same price of $3.75 for 500g. So I got them instead.

    The tricks with gizzards are: you need to clean them out as their purpose is grinding grains between small stones and there *will* be bits there; and, they are very tough muscle meat so they need a bit of cooking. NB this is why I say not gluten free, it's hard to really clean all the bits of grain out, even cut up.

    Anyway, I cut them into pieces, rinsed each piece well, and cooked for 25 minutes in a pressure cooker. Drained, cooled, laid on a baking tray in the freezer for 30 minutes, packed into a 500ml storage box. As a bonus, about 700ml of good chicken stock (but also likely not GF).

    5 pieces into today's soup with about half the stock, very nice tender chicken with a bit of an offal taste. Great with the noodles, soy wadi, wakame strips, chili paste, and Maesri Namya paste (the one with fingerroot).

    My mum used to serve up steak and kidney, liver and bacon, sweetbreads, etc.

    We just called it “#Offal.”

  21. CW: Goat offal

    I cooked up a #goat #heart and #liver yesterday for the first time; I used this recipe from YouTube:
    youtu.be/XvRrFEOz1as?si=0rRhhZ

    Overall it turned out pretty alright! Enjoyed it over some takeout curry and rice. Next time I'll be even more gentle with the liver - it's easy to overcook.

    A note to anyone that particularly enjoys liver - don't overeat in one sitting, as the iron content can be a bit rough on your GI system.

  22. @c_chep Haggis Tacos...

    I'd say that sounds really really grotesque, but I like beef tripe and have done the whole half day prep thing just to make some awesome menudo. But that's not haggis, which I've been told by many is rather disgusting.

    Notwithstading the fact that I do like tripe - if you take the hours of preparation to correctly ready it for serving up as the yummy, fatty, tender meat in menudo - but I still don't think it would be very good in a taco. Lengua is good, cabeza too, those are awesome filler meat for tacos, along with the more trad al pastor, asada, carnitas, etc.

    But Haggis? Here's the problem. There's very few things in this world that are edible, that I've discovered, are nasty vomit inducing foods - Chitlin's may be one of those food stuffs, while in general, offals aren't really a turn off for me in general.

    Perhaps the first time I tried chitlins I spent the night in my truck in 4 feet of snow instead of my warm toasty cabin - I just couldn't continue to throw up any longer. In fact it didn't take long before the smell of sizzling pus first overtook me, yet taking a bit of the chewey intestine didn't really taste bad at all, as I recall, before the aroma caused my own alimentary canal to erupt violently in a rapid succession of projectile vomiting.

    Imagine the smell of a horrid wound, penetrating the flesh all the way to the bone, sitting in the same dressing for a week, and then you remove it - the odor knocking you over. That was chitlins for me.

    Why? Well, my good childhood friend said, "Oh yum, chitterlings!" you didn't cook it right.

    How so? Well, I figured it came from a pig, and it's the offals. So, like lamb-fry or chicken gizzards & hearts I figured I'd just dump some into my big iron skillet with a big ass dollup of bacon fat and fry it up!

    Apparently, the recommended method is the same for chitlins as it is for tripe; you put it on a low boil for several hours. Regardless, because of he PTSD left over from that episode, even thinking about chitlins for a couple of minutes makes me queasy.

    Tripe, on the other hand, well, I was taught right by my next-door neighbor when I was a little kid. She was the matriarch in a large, extended family of children, but mostly grandchildren, that she and her husband were raising, and to a small degree, me too. So menudo is part of my regular cuisine.

    Haggis is stomach too though, just not beef stomach lining, right? So those offals might be akin to tripe and therefore, more likely to register on my yummy scale instead of my barf-0-matic vom-meter.

    So I'm still looking forward to trying out haggis to see if I like it - but Ill be sure to try it in a traditional setting, along with it's preparation.


    Fine dining opportunities are few and far between in Humboldt, California, but this is one of the finest establishments for Mexican cuisine in Eureka, California - a roach coach called, The Taco Boat. More info in the pixelfed parent link below.

    You can scoop anything you like into a flat and folded disc made of masa and call it a taco, I suppose - but that don't make it so. Like me buying a little jar of lumpfish roe for a couple of bucks and calling it caviar - technically, I suppose so, but we know better, don't we?

    Non-vegetarian? I'll give you non-vegetarian:

    greekcitytimes.com/2023/06/08/

    I'd love to try that (rated much better than foie gras and even menudo.

    One Easter we visited my daughter in graduate school in Athens, and the school roasted two whole lambs on spits over a fire. Tasted good, but looked a lot like grayhounds.
