    Just something I came acroos over the last few days. Liver seems to be like marmite!

    you either like it or hate it! I ate some recently and it does have a unique texture but I think it is lovely!

    So do you hate it or love it?

    Like most people, I've never really thought about it too much.

    Tried it once or twice in small doses. It has a very strong taste. Like leg of lamb, but with a stronger after-taste. Sheep's heart is where it's at these days :cool:

    i'm being stalked in a cooked liver thread

    I ate Lamb's Liver it was definitely a strong taste, I didn't really like it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,094 ✭✭✭✭javaboy


    Liver looks like a big floppy wet slug when raw. Cooking does nothing to improve its appeal.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,383 ✭✭✭emeraldstar


    As a child I loved it. I didn't really think about what it was though. I haven't had it in about 15 years though I'd say. The thought of it is quite gross now...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,533 ✭✭✭RobertFoster


    I've never tried it. I might have a nice big plate of it with some onions once my solid gold house and rocket car arrive.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,173 ✭✭✭✭kmart6


    No.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,983 ✭✭✭Red Hand


    I hated it as a child and then Mom stopped buying it.


    I do drink Cod Liver Oil as a supplement and I'm indifferent to that.

    Hell yeah!

    Foie Gras FTW!!!

    Nyom Nyom!

    It's absolutely vile. Hate it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 43,043 ✭✭✭✭Nevyn


    Tastey lamb's liver, coated in flour and spices and gently fried with onions and mushroom..../drool


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,510 ✭✭✭Jigsaw


    Liver and onions with brown sauce and champ. Now that is a dinner. I love all those unusual things like lamb's liver and sheep's heart etc. Nice n tasty.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 240 ✭✭Dfens


    Definitely wouldn't say I like it but have eaten it in the past just 'cos I know its good for me....wouldn't order it off a menu mind. Still its a bit better than heart....chewy. Like steak & kidney pie though.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,148 ✭✭✭✭KnifeWRENCH


    I love how you specified cooked liver! Otherwise, we couldn't be sure if the people replying "yes" liked their liver cooked or raw. And I for one would not be able to sleep without knowing that essential detail. So many people do eat raw liver, after all.

    Anyway I hate liver (cooked or raw) , but my Dad loves it (cooked). Always orders it (cooked) in restaurants if it's on the menu. (That's COOKED liver now, not raw liver. Just to be clear on that.)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,034 ✭✭✭✭It wasn't me!


    I like it.

    Apparently on the continent it's traditional to induct a new hunter by feeding him a slice of raw venison liver from his first deer while it's still warm. Meant to be quite delicious actually.

    Roast venison heart is also meant to be exceptionally tasty, but I haven't tasted it yet myself.

    liver (cooked) was one of the things I hated most as a kid.. used to chew it a bit, then leggit into the toilet to spit it out..

    havent tried it for years.. not much chance its gonna happen..
