Okay, seriously. This is just gross. I actually really like liver, but please don’t serve it to me in a loaf.
This one is from Money-Saving Main Dishes, a book I come back to again and again for a good laugh. Among my favorites are Curry-Chicken Stuffed Carrots (who stuffs a carrot?) and Eleven Bean Casserole. Eleven beans? Who has that much time?
And can someone please explain to me why canned tomatoes is a substitute ingredient for milk in this recipe? What has one to do with the other?
Liver Loaf
1 ½ pounds liver
2 tablespoons fat
¼ cup chopped onion
¼ cup chopped celery
¼ pound pork sausage
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup soft breadcrumbs
1 egg, beaten
2/3 cup milk or canned tomatoes
Brown the liver in the fat. Cop fine. Brown vegetables and add to liver. Add the remaining ingredients, and pack firmly into a loaf pan to shape. Bake in the pan or turn out on a rack in a shallow pan for baking. Bake at 350 degrees for 2 hours.
