Doctors order's, apparently I'm low on iron. Always limited myself with liver but the Doc said it's the healthiest meat you can eat. I typically sweat an onion with vinegar for 15-20 minutes until brown and them deglaze with cooking wine, then sauté some liver. Delicious but it's getting boring. Any recipes out there?

How about liverwurst? It's not all liver, but has a lot in it.

Saute a fistful of duck livers with some shallots, deglaze with sherry then puree in a blender with heavy cream. Set up in the fridge then spread on some crusty bread. Glass of red wine. Gets no better.

Braunschweiger lots of ways to eat it and contains lots of iron from pigs liver.
Can be blended with ground beef used as a supplement. Most large grocery stores carry it. Can usually be found near the sandwich meats. https://www.jonesdairyfarm.com/blog/what-is-braunschweiger/#:~:text=Originally%20from%20Germany%2C%20Braunschweiger%20is,casing%20that%20is%20typically%20smoked. Wife usually fixes beef liver like country fried steak. Breaded and fried. Makes gravy. |

gross.
Cook steak instead. Compared to using Teflon-coated, nonstick cookware, cast-iron pots and pans may increase the iron content of the foods cooked in them by up to 16%. This durable cookware may also effectively raise the iron levels for those diagnosed with iron-deficiency anemia, particularly children. |

I should try the liverwurst to help supplement it. I hated liver as a kid but came to appreciate good liver and onions as I got older. |

Had a related issue years back (now resolved). Pig liver has the highest iron content, but a much stronger flavor. What I found, was that I could buy tubs of frozen chicken livers. I’d put them in a blender and puree it, and mix it into ground beef. Couldn’t tell what was liver, and what was ground beef when I sautéed it (and you can use any recipe you’d use ground beef in). For the folks saying, “take a pill”; The body absorbs heme iron (from red meat, and liver etc.) much more effectively than inorganic iron from iron supplement pills or iron-rich vegetables. Aside from getting iron injections for folks who really have issues, as far as increasing iron levels orally, liver is the best option. P.S. Attempting to take more iron pills, can also cause constipation. |

Wife usually fixes beef liver like country fried steak. Breaded and fried. Makes gravy. Cool, I'll try it. It's just another word for liverwurst. I love it, though I can't stand liver. This would absolutely be my solution. Bonus: it's inexpensive. Bonus #2: It's one of the things I really like that no one else in the house does, so when I buy some, I get all of it.  I usually have it as a snack, not a meal. I put it on crackers with a spot of mustard, though I will make a sandwich of it occasionally. |

Pan fried beef liver and onions is hard to beat. I love breaded and deep fried chicken liver, but it is pretty explody when I try to make it. I only get it at the local Lucky Wishbone chicken frying establishment. I might try to convection bake it someday............
Fucking braunschweiger prices have not been good for a while. FJB I will shop for some liver soon, since your doctor recommended it.
