When I was younger I was not keen on Liver cooked as a one piece, but weirdly I love Liver gravy over Mashed potato, I have found the I prefer Liver sliced thinly and flash fried, like this recipe;
Pan fried calves liver and bacon recipe

________________________________________
Ingredients
SERVES 2
• 15g butter
• 1 large onion, thinly sliced
• A pinch of sugar
• 1 ½ tsp balsamic vinegar
• 6 rashers thinly sliced, rindless, streaky bacon
• 300g calves liver thinly sliced
• 15g flour, for dusting
• 1 tbsp sunflower oil
• Salt and pepper
For the Italian-style greens
• 200g savoy cabbage or spring greens/kale, shredded
• 20g butter
• 1 shallot, finely chopped
• Salt and pepper
• Small handful flat leaf (Italian) parsley, chopped
________________________________________
Method
1. Melt the butter in a large frying pan and fry the onions and the sugar over a medium heat, stirring frequently for 7-8 minutes until nicely browned. Season with salt and pepper and add the balsamic vinegar and allow it to bubble up for a few seconds. Take off the heat and keep warm.
2. Heat a grill or a griddle pan to high and cook the bacon until crisp at the edges and then keep warm.
3. Season the slices of liver with salt and pepper and then dust with flour. In another large frying pan add the oil and cook the slices of liver over a high heat for about 30 seconds on each side, it should be browned on the outside and pink and juicy in the middle. Lift the liver onto warmed plates and serve with the bacon and onions and serve with mashed potato and Italian style greens.
1. For the Italian-style greens – Heat the butter over a medium /high heat and add the shallots, fry for a few minutes until softened then add the cabbage and put a lid on the pan and allow it to wilt in the heat for a couple of minutes and then stir through salt and pepper.

Pure liver, no thanks. But there is liverwurst that tastes good, especially on pancakes.

I try to, but the only way I can handle it is a percentage blended in with ground beef. It's not even the taste of blood that gets me; it's the texture of it. It's like eating cartilage. I imagine it's what biting into a raw eyeball would be like and I can't. I just... I can't. However, I have been able to eat chicken liver, but I can only handle so much of that, too.

I can't eat it sliced but I will eat pate or things where its finely chopped and mixed with other stuff. Most Chinese takeaways here do liver and onions, I've never known anyone to buy it.

Eating liver can be quite an adventure for the palate. It's rich in flavor and packed with nutrients. I've tried it in various cuisines, such as Italian fegato alla veneziana and Japanese ankimo, often called foie gras of the sea. Each experience was unique, with different seasonings and preparation methods highlighting the liver's distinct taste. If you're into bold flavors and curious about nutrient-dense foods, liver is worth exploring. 🍽️

I've tried it and I hate it.  My wife loves liver and onions, but I even find the smell disgusting.

I love liver and don't know why so many people dislike it. I used to eat the little slices, kind of like slices of ham, but my favorite is how it is in Japan with yakitori sticks. Melts in my mouth.

my father used to make fried liver for breakfast on Sundays. My father was a POW during WW2 and he said he ate a lot of things to survive and liver has lots of iron and other nutrients. Still I was having none of it.

Flower7 · Answer

It tastes good, but no. The thought of what it is grossed me out. I used to eat it in childhood before I understood that it is an organ. But I won’t touch it now.

I like chopped liver and pate but not just liver like liver and onions. I take beef liver supplements because they're very dense nutrients.

Not a chance. I would have to be lost in the woods for a week without any thing to eat before I would choke down liver.
