A few tricks for properly preparing chicken liver
Surely young housewives have more than once wondered how to cook chicken liver so that it is soft, like the most tender meat. And here are a few tricks that will help you make a tasty and satisfying dish:
- To cook chicken liver quickly and tasty, it is advisable to use a non-frozen product. Due to the effects of low temperature, the dish will never turn out perfectly tender - the liver will simply give up its juice, instead of browning and retaining all the most delicious things inside itself. Therefore, it is advisable to use only chilled chicken liver.
- Before cooking chicken liver in a frying pan, it is advisable to not only thoroughly clean it of everything unnecessary, but also dry it, but do not add salt. After washing, the chicken liver can be blotted with a paper towel.
- You shouldn’t put all the liver in the pan at once - you should do it one piece at a time and gradually add all the rest. If you add the entire amount of liver at once, the temperature on the surface of the pan will drop sharply, which will not allow a neat crust to form.
- The degree of readiness of the product should be checked by pressing your finger. Its ideal state is soft, but slightly denser than when raw.
- And the last secret. Chicken livers are incredibly tender and continue to cook even when the heat is off. If the frying pan has a thick bottom, then it is advisable to immediately after finishing cooking the dish transfer it to a separate container.
After such subtleties, it would be a sin not to go to the nearest store for fresh chicken livers. And now it’s worth meeting one more original recipe preparations.
