Braised Pork Liver

Braised Pork Liver

This tender and flavorful Braised Pork Liver recipe is a must-try for offal lovers! The secret lies in the meticulous preparation—rinsing and blanching the liver with ginger removes any bitterness, while slow-braising infuses it with rich, savory depth. Key ingredients like fresh scallions and ginger enhance the natural umami of the pork liver, while a long soak in the braising liquid ensures every slice is juicy and packed with flavor. The result? Silky-smooth, melt-in-your-mouth liver with a perfectly balanced taste. Ideal as a cold appetizer or paired with rice, this dish shines when prepared ahead, allowing the flavors to deepen overnight. A comforting, protein-rich delicacy that’s both simple and impressive!
