Steps:
- Gently rinse liver slices under cold water, and place in a medium bowl. Pour in enough milk to cover. Let stand while preparing onions. (I like to soak up to an hour or two - whatever you have time for.) This step is SO important in taking the bitter taste of the liver out.
- Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Separate onion rings, and saute them in butter until soft. Remove onions, and melt remaining butter in the skillet. Season the flour with salt and pepper, and put it in a shallow dish or on a plate. Drain milk from liver, and coat slices in the flour mixture.
- When the butter has melted, turn the heat up to medium-high, and place the coated liver slices in the pan. Cook until nice and brown on the bottom. Turn, and cook on the other side until browned. Add onions, and reduce heat to medium. Cook a bit longer to taste. Our family prefers the liver to just barely retain a pinkness on the inside when you cut to check. Enjoy!

LIVER AND ONIONS WITH CIDER GRAVY AND BISCUITS
Steps:
- Make the biscuits:
- In a bowl whisk together the flour, the baking powder, and the salt, add the butter, and blend the mixture until it resembles coarse meal. Add the milk and stir the mixture until it is just combined. Knead the dough gently on a floured surface for 30 seconds, pat or roll it out 1/4 inch thick, and with a floured 3-inch cutter cut out 4 rounds. Bake the biscuits on a buttered baking sheet in the middle of a preheated 450°F. oven for 12 to 15 minutes, or until they are golden.
- While the biscuits are baking, in a bowl toss the liver with the flour and salt and pepper to taste. In a large heavy skillet heat 1 tablespoon of the oil over moderately high heat until it is hot but not smoking, in it brown the liver, and transfer the liver to another bowl. Add to the skillet the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and the onion and cook the onion over moderate heat, stirring occasionally and scraping up the brown bits, until it is golden. Add the cider, 1/4 cup water, and the liver with any juices that have accumulated in the bowl, simmer the mixture, stirring occasionally, for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the liver is cooked through, and season it with salt and pepper.
- Split the biscuits and spoon the liver and onion mixture over them.
Tips:
- Choose the right liver: Beef liver is the most common type used for this dish, but you can also use pork or lamb liver. Make sure the liver is fresh and has a deep red color.
- Soak the liver in milk: This will help to remove any impurities and mellow the flavor of the liver.
- Slice the liver thinly: This will help it to cook evenly.
- Season the liver: Before cooking, season the liver with salt, pepper, and any other desired spices.
- Cook the liver over medium heat: This will help to prevent it from becoming tough.
- Do not overcook the liver: Liver is best when cooked medium-rare. Overcooking will make it tough.
- Serve the liver immediately: Liver is best served immediately after cooking.
