WILTED SPINACH SALAD

I served this terrific salad to guests and it was a hit! Pour the hot dressing over the salad right before serving time. I found this recipe in an old Farm Journal cookbook. Cook time is for the time it takes to boil the eggs and fry the bacon.

GRILLED CALF LIVER KABOBS WITH WILTED SPINACH SALAD



Grilled Calf Liver Kabobs With Wilted Spinach Salad image

I imagine this won't be one of Zaar's most popular recipes. However for the liver and spinach lovers out there, this is fantastic! I got this recipe from the Omaha Steaks Meat cookbook and made only a few changes. I have to admit, I'm submitting this in part because my sister hates liver! She's a new member to Zaar, and even though we're grown, I still like to gross her out occasionally!

Tips:

  • Always choose fresh calf liver that is firm and pink. Avoid any liver that is slimy or has an off smell.
  • Soak the liver in milk for at least 30 minutes before cooking. This will help to remove any bitterness from the liver.
  • Slice the liver against the grain into 1-inch thick pieces. This will help to make the liver more tender.
  • Season the liver with salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs and spices. You can also marinate the liver in a mixture of oil, vinegar, and herbs for extra flavor.
  • Cook the liver over medium heat until it is cooked through. Do not overcook the liver, or it will become tough.
  • Serve the liver immediately with your favorite sides. Some popular sides include grilled vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.

Conclusion:

Grilled calf liver kabobs are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The liver is tender and flavorful, and the wilted spinach salad is a refreshing and healthy complement. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
