NEWS photo Brad Ledwidge GERTAIN COOKING techniques are ezsential when preparing liver for any dish: “Viandes varies truths 7 ey at the plate YOU DON’T have to quiver’ _at the mention of liver. Few of us were fond of liver during our childhood. And who remembers an enjoyable dinner of kidney stew? Most of us remember ‘lingering at the table, or sacrificing dessert, rather than eat liver. __ Despite these unpleasant memo- ries, some_of us acquired the taste and indeed became devotees of what the French refer to as “vian- des varies” (The French language has a way of making any food sound desirable and appealing). The following cooking tech- niques are important when prepar- ing liver for any dish: do not over- cook -— rare to medium rare is best; season with salt and pepper before dusting with flour; cut liver into strips similar so that more sur- face is exposed and cooking can occur very quickly; remove the meat to a plate and let rest in warm oven while making a quick pan sauce.
