We made braised liver by dredging liver in flour, browning it on both sides, packing on the onions, adding water to cover, bringing to a boil, then turning the heat down to simmer. It was simmered 45 minutes covered, then uncovered for 15 minutes. The liver was very tender and mild, and there was a sauce with the onions.

My husband and I just cooked beef liver using this recipe. The recipe is simple with items I always have on hand. It was absolutely DELICIOUS! I could envision this recipe being a Specialtly at an up-scale restaurant. My husband would have preferred less sugar in the sauce....the next time I make this (which will be soon) I will use less sugar. Some of the best liver and onions I have ever eaten!! -
Nice meal, thank! I used lambs liver, it has a much nicer flavor. -
I really enjoyed my dinner. I have never soaked liver in milk but it seems to mellow the flavor. Lovely gravy forms with the broth, onions and sour cream - I used whipped cottage cheese instead of the sour cream - It works well and I always have it in the house. Thanks for a very tasty liver dinner Aroostook

Zaar...Wow, what a place! I'm one of the old timers of Zaar. I can't count the number of wonderful dishes I cooked in the past few years since joining. Along the way I have had the pleasure of meeting several Zaar chefs. Talk about your fruits and nuts! lol. I have enjoyed meeting them all.
Family: What's to say...I have had the same sweet husband forever (Good thing....I'd hate to have to break a new one in...=) and live close to a couple of grown children. (Maybe you've met Smoke Alarm Jr. ..her brown rolls are sooo good!) Therefore, my family gets together often to enjoy each other's company and cooking. My greatest joy is six "little to tallerthanme" kids running around calling me Grammy. They wear me out! lol
For the past thirty years I have been a Special Education teacher for grades 9-12 and love it. Took some time off last year to recovery from surgery, chemotherapy and radiation for breast cancer. (Loved the radiation....I keep imagining that we are absolutely napalming the nasty cancer cells tohellandback to keep the little suckers from returning. =) My prognosis is good and now "I'm back in the saddle again". lol. Being a north country "gurl", I am happiest outside...walking, fishing, sitting in front of an outdoor fire or being on water (although in February it's a bit stiff....=0) When indoors I like to read, garden, knit, quilt and paint. During cold Maine weather I like to warm my feet on a very large ( 100 pounds of long legs and huge feet), sweet and furry golden retriever named Kerry (aka KTBRD: Kerry the big red dawg..lol) . In the summer, the dawg and I round up the grandkids, hit the local dairy bar for a Mounds Sundae that is to die for!!!=0) . Then spend a lot of long and lazy summer days at camp . All in all...Boy, Life is good! =)
