• British bacon

    From JIM WELLER@1:123/140 to DALE SHIPP on Tuesday, September 03, 2019 22:32:00

    Quoting Dale Shipp to Jim Weller <=-

    a slice of loin (like our back bacon) with the pork belly,
    where the streaky or side bacon comes from, still attached.
    It looks like this: https://sashasfinefoods.com/products/bacon

    The "bacon" rashers I recall did not have as much loin as that
    picture. Rather anywhere from a one inch round

    Sasha's fine foods serves only fine bacon!

    Title: Calves Liver with Bacon and Capers
    Categories: Veal, Offal, Bacon, Wine
    Yield: 6 Servings

    24 oz Calves liver
    3 c Milk
    4 oz Slab bacon
    1 md Onion; quartered, sliced
    2 tb Capers
    2 ts Sage
    Coarse salt
    Freshly ground black pepper
    2 tb White wine
    1/2 c Veal or chicken stock
    2 c All-purpose flour
    1/4 c Heavy cream
    1 tb Olive oil
    1 tb Chopped parsley

    Slice liver on an angle and halve. In a large baking dish, soak liver
    in milk, covered, in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours but no
    more than 24 hours.

    Cut bacon into 1- by 1/4-inch pieces. In a large cast-iron skillet,
    saute bacon over medium-high heat until fat is rendered, about 5
    minutes. Remove bacon from skillet.

    Drain off almost all the fat, and place skillet over medium heat. Add
    onion, and cook until caramelized, about 6 minutes. Add bacon back to
    skillet with capers, sage, salt, and pepper.

    Deglaze with wine, and cook for 2 minutes, loosening any brown bits
    from the bottom of the pan with a spoon. Add stock, and cook until
    heated through. Pour in cream, and stir to combine.

    Remove liver from milk, dredge liver in flour, and season with salt
    and pepper. In a cast-iron skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat.
    Cook liver for 3 minutes on each side for medium-rare. Serve liver
    topped with cream sauce. Sprinkle with parsley.
