| -------- ------------ --------------------------------
| 1 Pound Pork Liver
| 1 Pound Pork Chops -- boneless
| 1/2 Teaspoon Salt
| 1/2 Teaspoon Black Pepper
| 1/2 Teaspoon Crushed Red Pepper Flakes
| 1 Teaspoon Ground Sage
|
| Clean the liver and trim away the excess fat, membrane and veins. Cook the
| liver and porkchops over medium heat, in separate pots, until they are
| thoroughly done and a fork easily inserts in them. Cook them separate to
| avoid overcooking either. Save the stock from the porkchop.
|
| Cut the liver and porkchop into small cubes and then run them thorough a
| meat grinder together. In a pinch you can use a food processor but you want
| to grind the meat, not liquify it. You want it finely ground but not
| creamy.
|
| Stir in the salt, two types of pepper, and sage. Taste it and see if you
| want more seasoning. Use some of the liquid from your pork chops to
| moisten your mixture so that it sticks together nicely.
|
| Pack the mixture tightly into a lightly oiled pyrex loaf pan. Cover with
| plastic wrap and refridgerate for a day to allow the flavors to blend and
| the texture to set in. After a day it should be set enough where you can be
| removed and wrapped tightly in plastic wrap or transferred to a storage
| container. It will keep for several days in the fridge.

Interesting collection of recipes, Wayne, particularly the
ricotta and fig pie and this one. Thanks.

BTW what are the liver and chop cooked in?

Thanks, Pavane. The ricotta and fig pie is one of my favorite ways of baking
with ricotta.

My grandmother always cooked both the liver and chop in bacon fat. I usually
do, too, unless I've run out. Then I use a neutral oil.

OK. I could enjoy this. But when do nomal folk eat it? Breakfast
meat? A dinner side? Snakkies?

One man's fish is another man's poissons.
