Ah, “Liver and Onions” — a classic dish! 🍽️ Here’s a quick breakdown:
What it is:
- Liver (usually beef, chicken, or pork) sautéed with onions.
- Often seasoned with salt, pepper, and sometimes a splash of vinegar or wine.
Why it’s popular:
- Liver is nutrient-dense, high in vitamin A, iron, B12, and folate.
- Onions add flavor and antioxidants.
Tips for cooking:
- Soak liver in milk for 30–60 minutes before cooking to reduce bitterness.
- Don’t overcook — liver becomes tough and grainy if cooked too long.
- Cook onions slowly until caramelized for natural sweetness.
Serving ideas:
- Mashed potatoes or creamy polenta
- Sautéed greens like spinach or kale
- A tangy mustard sauce or gravy
