🧠 ORGAN MEATS [THREAD] 🧠

Most people think of muscles (and some fat and skin).

But you're missing out if you do that.

So, I'm gonna make a list of organ meats that we eat in Argentina, that you could try.

Here we go!

---> RT if you find these tasty <---
SESO

(Cow's brain)

These can be done fried or in a barbecue. Tons of good fat in them.
MORCILLA

(Blood Sausage)

These are delicious. You can also cook them in the oven in high heat. I personally open them and then keep on cooking until the interior has a crispy surface. Can be eaten cold too.
MOJELLAS

(Cow's Sweetbreads)

"Sweetbread is a culinary name for the thymus (also called throat, gullet, or neck sweetbread) or pancreas (also called stomach, belly or gut sweetbread)"

Personal favorite of mine!

Cook them in a pan with butter and lemon juice. Crispy!
There was a typo...

Correct spelling is : MOLLEJAS
CRIADILLA DE TORO

(Bulls Testicles)

I only tasted these because I was a young kid and my father told me it was something else. Everyone was laughing. Trauma ensued (just kidding). Never ate it again. Many people in Argentina consider these a delicious plate.

The end!

Thanks
UBRE

(Cow's Udder)

Very chewie if I remember correctly. Haven't eaten these since I was a kid. Very fatty.
HIGADO

(Liver)

Of course this one is way more commonly eaten around the world. But I wanted a somewhat complete list.
CHINCHULINES

(small intestine)

Usually cow's intestine, but they all work. I prefer them when done really crispy. The inside can be cleaned, or not!
CORAZON

(Heart)

Cows, chicken, lamb, etc. Texture is weird. I personally don't like it.
LENGUA

(Cow's tongue)

This one must be boiled, then peeled. And the most tasty version I know is "Lengua a la vinagreta". Which is tongue with oil and vinegar, and some minced peppers and onions. The more you let it sit in the vinegar, the better it will taste. Eaten cold.
