Chicken Liver Salad
Truly lots of people say they hate liver but when they have this - they find
they rather like it. Definately not on a diet kind of food but easy and as good
as any Jewish deli makes.
NOTE: Schmaltz is rendered (melted) chicken fat. You can actually buy this
in places that sell Jewish foods. If you want to make your own, get some chicken
fat and put in a frying pan on low heat. Stir the pieces of fat frequently;
if there's lots of fat, you can drain the pan into a container to keep things
from splattering too much. The fat will eventually melt down to a tough, dry
blob (the griveners) at which point you're done rendering. The liquid fat is
the schmaltz.
1 lb chicken livers
1 onion (large)
2 garlic cloves
3 Tbsp schmaltz
3 eggs, hard boiled
Melt the schmaltz in a large frying pan. Saute the onions and garlic in the
schmaltz until the onions are tender and carmelized. Add the chicken livers,
and saute until done. (Livers are done when they are no longer red or pink on
the inside.)
Chop the cooked livers and onions, along with the hard boiled eggs. They should
be farily coarsly chopped. Season with a little salt, and a little more melted
schmaltz if things are dry.
