Chicken Livers  

post #1 of 5
Thread Starter 
I love eating the liver when it's cooked with the chicken. I'm pregnant and wanted to try to incorporate liver into my diet weekly. Today I cooked some up with onions and it made me want to vomit. I don't understand. Does anyone cook theirs up in chicken bone broth? Maybe to me that is the flavor I was expecting.

Any tips would be great. I sauteed them in a little butter with onions, added some salt and pepper. That way made me gag, so I had to add some balsamic vinegar and that tasted better to me, but still made me sick. I'm still sick to my stomach.

Maybe my taste buds have changed and I just can't handle it right now.


Any tips on cooking livers would be great. They were free range organic ones from the farm up the road.

Have you tried a rich pate?

How about adding it into spaghetti sauce? Or tacos meat. I normally cook the liver alone or in stock, then let it cool. Then I process them in the food processor and add in with my meat, about 1/4 lb of liver to 1lb of beef (my farmer packages chicken livers by the lb).

I know some mamas have had success with liver tablets, and come of them have had success with just freezing liver, then cutting a little frozen bit off and swallowing it quickly.

I made the pate on Kerry Ann's cookingtf.com site and it was very yummy. The bacon/grease helps with the flavor a bit. Even my extremely picky 3.5 yo ate it and asked for more on a piece of celery. He's NEVER been willing to eat anything like pate or celery.
