I always use chicken liver for liver/bacon/onion/mash these days. Costs f**k all & comes out as good as calf’s liver 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Born Hunter 17,751 Posted October 21, 2020 Report Share Posted October 21, 2020 Mallard hearts! Fry up about a dozen with bacon and mushroom and smash it all into a cob. They’d be extinct before I had had enough, lol. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Do you collect them yourself or do you buy them? would imaging they are much the same as chicken hearts as they are both birds of a simular size, if so try some and you may be able to save the mallard before it’s to late, mallard fact I once read all domestic ducks descended from the mallard, please don’t ask for a link 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Sweetbreads are the sheep’s thymus gland , found in the neck . just googled it myself and it says it’s also the pancreas of beef and pork. But the ones I’ve had and like are the sheep neck ones . 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I could never quite fancy it therefore. Had a swan hit the wires, here, some years back. I stuck it in the freezer and canvassed several local taxidermists, to see anyone could use it. One bloke summed it up: " In thirty five years at this game, one thing I've never been asked for is a stuffed swan. " I took it back to the river side. Overnight it was reduced to a husk and a few feathers. Wish I'd had the fukking trail cam then! There was a taxidermist, back in the day, who notoriously ate the body of everything he mounted. Forget his name now. But, I had a Grey Phalarope by him. Wonder what That tasted like? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Used to be served with the neck and wings as decoration, might try this with the chicken on Sunday! 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
