Its not that bad.
Had a coupon for Jones brand, so I got a small 8 oz tube and ate it on crackers. Now, the "cheap" brands, I'm still afraid of. |

Today you are a man!
JK. Try it on some good seeded rye bread with brown mustard and a cold beer on the side. That is fine living, my friend. |

Half the reflexive fear of it comes from the name. Combine "liver" and "WORST" and few American kids are going to be willing to open their mouths to it for the first time. I mean, if I were 8 again, I doubt I would be too keen on ingesting some funky paste called, "brainhorrible" or some shit.

put in a thin slice of onion
goes good with the mustard and wurst toast the bread too, if you want |
|
I always ate it with extra crusty Italian bread. Then I grew up, read the medical info, and haven't had any in 50 years. |

Awesome stuff. I get it sliced at the deli, and love it with crusty bread. Try it as a snack when downing a good lager.
|
|
Yum. Liverwurst with a nice slice of Vidalia onion on white bread with good German mustard.
Reminds me of my childhood. |

Now, if you want to, try seeded rye with a couple over easy eggs on top. Or seeded rye with a slice of onion and a slice of limburger cheese. OR seeded rye with a slice of onion and beer kaese cheese. OR sardines and soda crackers. OR pickled pigs feet and crackers. OR, well there are many more old world food experiences you can try ... if you have the nerve to try.

Has to be purple onion on toasted rye with some good mustard
|

If you like liverwurst, you need to try some braunschweiger.
|
|
That used to be my 2am go to food when I was coming home from the bars.
|

Ate the stuff since I was a kid.
Wonder bread Kraft single cheese Miracle whip And smear the wurst on like past Scrumptious. |
|
Fry a slice and put it on an egg and cheese sandwich. so good.

Pig snouts....do they de-snot them before they grind them up for liverwurst?
|
|
Liverwurst and onions on rye is da bom!!. Though I do prefer mayo on mine which is a bit blasphemous to some.

Mom used to make me liver sausage samwiches when I was a kid. White Wonder bread, slathered with Mayo, and a healthy amount of liver sausage. It was delicious

Liverwurst (or Braunschweiger) don't really taste like liver at all. They taste to me like most soft sausages, and not far from the cheap potted meat pastes.
Liver and kidney I have never eaten, but from what I've read they have a stronger taste. Something about them gives me pause - maybe the fact that they aren't readily available. I'm not sure. I don't have a problem with the rest of the offal meats (I love scrapple and head cheese, for example). Organ meats are generally good so I will have to try. Sardines and anchovies, on the other hand, just taste like fishy salt. |

My grandmother used to make me liver sausage on rye sandwiches when I was a kid. I still eat it from time to time, mostly for the nostalgia.

I've loved it since I was a kid. My Mom and Grandmother loved it too. Dad and my Brother hated it. Kind of a pattern going there. Oh wait, my wife hates it too. lol

That sounds good. I've liked the stuff on crackers with cheese. I'm still not sure about sardines though. View Quote There is a huge difference between cured anchovies (the canned ones) and white anchovies. When you think anchovies you are thinking of the pungent hair-boned fishy ones, those are packed with salt and cured, becoming dark and fishy. You need to look for white anchovies, they come typically in a clear plastic package, are bone white, packed in olive oil and a touch of vinegar. They have absolutely zero bones, are firm not mushy, no fish flavor, and are delicious on some buttered toast. Literally a completely different product (with different uses, more antipasto than ingredient). |

I remember liking it when I was a kid, with mustard. Matter of fact, I don't think I've had it since I was a kid. Some of the suggestions sound pretty interesting.

I impulse buy some Braunschweiger about once a year, enjoying the taste on crackers. Delicious.
|
|
I loved liverwurst as a kid. Haven't had it in ages. May have to try it again.
Swiss cheese, mustard, and toasted bread. |
|
Next try blood sausage.
I'm not going to, because jeezes... but you could. |

This thread is inspiring me to try it! Never have View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Give it a shot. I HATE liver, love me some liverwurst. Go figure. In the United States, Braunschweiger refers to a type of liverwurst (pork liver sausage) which, if stuffed in natural casings, is nearly always smoked. Commercial products often contain smoked bacon, and are stuffed into fibrous casings.
The USDA requires that the product contain a minimum of 30% liver. A typical commercial formula is about 40% pork liver or scalded beef liver, 30% scalded pork jowl, 20% lean pork trimmings and 10% bacon ends and pieces. Added seasonings include salt and often include white pepper, onion powder or chopped onion, and mace. Curing ingredients (sodium erythorbate and sodium nitrite) are optional. Braunschweiger has a very high amount of vitamin A, iron, protein and fat. The meat has a very soft, spread-like texture and a distinctive spicy liver-based flavor, very similar to the Nordic leverpostej. It is usually used as a spread for toast, but can also be used as a filling for sandwiches, often paired with stone-ground mustard, sliced tomato, onion and cheese. In the Midwestern United States, braunschweiger is typically enjoyed in a sandwich with various condiments such as ketchup, mustard, and dill pickles, or simply spread on crackers. There are also a few recipes for pâté and cheese balls which use braunschweiger as a primary ingredient. Pâté is creamier than braunschweiger. Quoted:
I always ate it with extra crusty Italian bread. Then I grew up, read the medical info, and haven't had any in 50 years. Everything in moderation. Besides, if you add years to the end of your life you're only prolonging the time you spend toothless, drooling on yourself, looking at your shriveled noodle. |
