Pan-Seared Sweetbreads: A Gourmet Delight

Features:
    Cuisine:

    Would have given it 5 stars had not the shallots burned. The flavors were out-of-this-world fabulous. Will either leave out the shallots next time or saute them separately (not sure they bring anything to the recipe). Otherwise a must-try if you love sweetbreads.

    Sweetbreads (Pan Seared), Sweetbreads (thymus gland) are the ultimate organ meat, highly prized by chefs and connoisseurs for their mild flavor and velvety texture They can be sauteed, braised, poached, grilled, fried, and even roasted In addition to center of plate entrees, sweetbreads can be served as hot or cold appetizers or hors doeuvres They can be purchased in specialty gourmet markets If you have any questions e-mail me: AlanLeonetti@q com, Would have given it 5 stars had not the shallots burned The flavors were out-of-this-world fabulous Will either leave out the shallots next time or saute them separately (not sure they bring anything to the recipe) Otherwise a must-try if you love sweetbreads , I found that 2 minutes on each side, at very high heat as suggested, is excessive In addition, unless the shallots are added toward the end of the cooking process, they are liable to burn and turn bitter OK otherwise
