Recipe of Love: for Polly

Got a date with something pretty?

Cook up this beautiful traditional dish. Your hearts will leap, your eyes will softly close, your tastebuds will embrace the wonderment.


Gebackenes Euter (Fried Cow's Udder)

Ingredients (4 servings)
500 g Cow's udder (a generous lb)
1 Egg, beaten
Plain breadcrumbs
100 g Butter (7 Tbsp)
Salt
Pepper


Instructions: In order to remove all traces of milk, put the udder into lukewarm water and let soak for 2 to 4 hours, permitting the water to cool off. Then cook the udder in a 2-percent to 3- percent salt water solution until tender. Remove from the cooking liquid and cut into 1/2-inch thick slices. Let the slices dry a bit. Season on both sides, dip into whisked egg, and then into breadcrumbs. Fry in butter, turning once, until golden brown on both sides. Serve with lettuce.

monika you were in a weird dream i had. i went to deliver a letter to your house but it was all "fixed" (i read the notice that was there last time) and i couldn't find you so i had to get in through your bedroom window and then for some reason you wern't allowed to know i was there so i had to try and get out without you knowing and rudi pointed to "around the garden" bit which dosen't exist at all. but you found out i was there anyway and we had tea. the end.
