Рецепт Don’t Go Breakin’ My Lamb Heart Recipe
Have you heard the word “offal” on some of the cooking shows or among friends, but aren’t familiar with the term? It is basically the organ meats of butchered animals that are not widely eaten by mainstream American. But, being a self-proclaimed mouthpiece of the Paleo diet, I want to set a good example in at least exploring these animal parts. I won’t lie, I’ve been a little scared of the heart. But, I pinky-promised a Facebook friend that I’d try it. So, once I saw this beautiful little lamb heart at Whole Foods, in my basket it went! #adventuresinthekitchen
The heart was good, a little gamey, but I think it is because it was from a lamb. Next time I think I’ll try stuffing a beef heart. So far, the cow tongue (Italian Beef Tongue Lettuce Cups) has been my favorite…with the lamb testicles (Sauteed Lamb Fries) all the way at the bottom of my list!
Don’t Go Breakin’ My Lamb Heart Recipe
Ingredients

- a handful of cherry tomatoes, halves
- 2 garlic cloves, quartered
