Liver is a bit high in fat and then fried in butter, definitely not a heart healthy food. Good source of iron though. Very retro!

It was a standard once a week meat at our house. Ma always said it was necessary for strong blood. Yeah! liver sandwich is great; no it is nothing like braunschwieger. It is much better, and I love braunschwieger sandwich. Why isn't it good for you, Kate? Was not aware that liver and onions was considered a reto food.

My family called it steak because that is what I thought it was one time when she served it. It was so good, I thought it must be the then outrageously expensive steak that was always talked about in worshipful tones, though rarely seen in a large family during the 60s and 70s. Thanks for stopping by, I hope to see you soon. I think so too. My family called it steak because that is what I thought it was one time when she served it.

Very nice. I've always held that the reson why so many people don't like liver is because they had it cooked improperly or poorly. My mother has always dredged it with a mixture of flour, salt, and pepper, and then fried it in a pan with about a half a stick of butter and an onion. It's delicious. Not good for you, though!

I don't think I have ever had a liver leftover sandwich. Braunschwieger with mustard was an occassional favorite though. Is it rather like that? Maybe you should make it some weekend.

I liked it as well on day 2 as a sandwich with mustard. Jennifer, she wasn't so thrilled by it when she was 2 - which is when I was in a liver & onions phase. I don't think I've made it since then.
