mr Spikey loves liver, onions and bacon with mash and gravy, and grilled kidneys with his Saturday cooked English breakfast, and if his mum phones and says shes made real faggots, he'll drive a 40 mile round trip!. I can just about eat pate, but that's about it - what about you?

Liver and bacon, yum, yum.
Ditto black pudding.
I also make a casserole of lamb's hearts, but I've never found anyone else who likes it.
Duck hearts and gizzards delicious!
I love liver and onions, I also like kidney with my steak pies, haggis and black pudding are nice too. And I'm not averse to tripe in vinegar.
I've just seen atalantas post I used to stuff sheeps hearts and roast them, lovely.
chitterlings with vinegar and pepper.



Dave.
look away nowspikey

All of it at every opportunity, except tripe which I've never been able to do anything with even after soaking it in milk for bleedin' hours. And I make a mean stuffed heart casserole and kidneys in sherry.

You can't get them now but before bse, one of the spaghetti houses in London also used to do a fab calves brains fried in sage butter, wooo!
^^cross posted with atalanta and ayg, so that's three of us then!
I eat pate, but definitely none of the other. Yuk!

I used to be partial to a faggot or two, but haven't had one for years...
ayg, how did you cook the tripe?
Just read that faggots are made from offal, so there goes that 'none of the others'.
Gross. I don't know what I thought they were made from. Beef, I thought? I was only a kid. I feel cheated...
My mum used to dry tripe and dip it in batter and fry it when we were kids, I used to love it. I never really knew what it was then - maybe a mild sort of fish. This was just after the war. MrAsk thinks it's hilarious to think she was passing it off as fish (which she wasn't really) or that I was daft enough to think it was fish.
Should have added ^ I eat tripe raw nowadays with salt and pepper and vinegar on it.
Apart from tripe and pigs trotters I'll eat just all the other offal based things
never thought of batter, ^^presumably in the frying pan ayg?

If you're eating it raw, do you soak it first?
Years ago I ordered and enjoyed "sweetbreads" at Cleary's restaurant in Dublin.
Never had the guts to cook them though.
Plenty of vinegar and think of England sloopy.

Yes tripe fried in a frying pan sloopy. Raw tripe is just rinsed patted dry and sprinkled (or prinkled, as per last nights thread) with salt and pepper and vinegar. Like chitterlings. That is about the limit, I couldn't eat the other stuff like pigs trotters and sheeps brains or saints preserve us - bulls pistils.
Love pate, love faggots (proper ones - not supermarket frozen offerings!) and even quite like haggis. But offal in its natural state - noooo!
Husband loves it though, so do occasionally cook it for him (normally if I'm going to have a veg stir fry!) First time I prepared heart and held it under running water (following Delia's instructions) and the bloody thing started pumping in my hand though it got thrown across the kitchen!
I like liver with mash and loads of gravy and I adore proper faggots but I don't like offal otherwise.
My nan loved tripe. I thought it was disgusting.
