Re: Oh you are offal, but I like you

Some of it I like, some of it I don't. I can happily live without tripe, elder and black puddings but love liver, kidney, ox tail and ox cheek, and can happily eat the odd slice of tongue. I draw the line at brains.

I do love some of the cheaper cuts of meat and find that they are lovely done in the slow cooker. Brisket and ox tail always come out really tender.

I used to be really fussy with food but my tastes have changed as I have got older. I think living with Sparks has a lot to do with it, as the only thing with legs he won't eat is the table...

I am particular about my sausages though and always go to David in Ossy Mills or at the Black Horse. The lamb kofta sausages and the venison ones he does are excellent. I wouldn't touch a supermarket pack of sausages, don't fancy eating all the bollocks and arseholes and stuff that goes in them..

Love offal but won't eat tongue. The idea of french kissing a cow........

Had brains when I was a kid and would again if we were allowed.

Hot tongue & cold shoulder frequently, but usually not on a plate.

Thinking about it, it's also from a Cow. (Can you tell she's not in )

I'm from the same generation too, but when Ma cooked liver for the family I didn't eat it. I hated it. Tripe........YouuuuK, tastes like snot......if you put vinegar on it...vinegary snot. Elder.....baaaad, horrible(my dad used to make elder butties, and ate them as if it was nectar of the gods - how could he?) He liked fried lamb brains on toast too(retches loudly).......I know that offal is nourishing, but it does nothing for me. You can have my share between you.
loved elder but you cant buy it now llll

Re: Oh you are offal, but I like you

I love liver cooked with onions and strips of bacon with thick gravy and mashed potatoes. I love kidneys in steak and kidney pies and occaisionally lightly fried for breakfast. But there I am afraid I draw the line. The much beloved Grandmother once tried persuading me to eat tripe and elder; she only tried once.
