Slavery's over, massa can't stop you from eating the real meat anymore.

>>11964258
I bought a cheap combined pack of meat which was pretty good but it came with a pack of kidneys and the only thing I've eaten kidneys in is a pie. Only recipes I see on youtube are some Arab looking stews that look yuck

>>11964258
Eating Kidneys is more of a British than Negro-American thing.

>>11964263
Make a steak and kidney pie.

>kidneys

Trade them for a liver.

>>11964252
why would you eat a piss filter?

>>11964288
same reason you'd eat ass cheeks

half chopped steak half kidney in a red wine gravy topped with puff pastry for a pie.

don't have money for steak rn would mince work?

>>11964315
absolutely but i would recommend using the cheapest WHOLE cut of beef you can find if possible and dicing up that and the kidneys into 1-2 in pieces.

>>11964315
if you use fatty ground beef I would brown it separately and drain the grease first.

reet tea's sorted, simple

sautée them with mushrooms and onions, make a cream sauce with either mustard or marsala, serve on toast. It's more of a knife and fork affair despite what the toast would have you believe

>>11964336
obviously slice them thin before you sautée them

>>11964252
skewer them and bbq. Don't overcook them though because they'll texture like a pencil eraser. Or make a pie or stew, pretty much straight swap for the meat. They're nice with sage, mushrooms, pepper.

>>11964332
I don't understand. I'm American. Are you British?

disgusting ones, some british garbage like steak and kidney pie maybe?

Hello newfriend

I personally only know of heart and kidney soup.

Typically your typical eastern european meat soup except the meat to be reduced into mush by overcooking is of value lost.

>>11964471
>of _no_ value lost.

It's like 6am here. Good night.

Soak in water with a cup of vinegar for a while to get the piss flavor out

Then dice and braise with root vegetables in red wine

>>11964252
Wtf why is there blood and shit inside those beans

you cant make anything with two beans and a tomato

kidney sushi tacos

If you get them untrimmed so the fat is still on, they're way nicer. The fat goes golden and crisp when barbecued. It's delicious. Without the fat they're kinda boring.

The eternal Anglo saves us again.
That sounds amazing.

>>11964252
Steak and kidney pie

>>11964288
You can describe everything you eat in similar fashion.

>>11964435
steak and kidney pie is almost as bong as steak pudding or pie and mash

Tfw this is the only thread where British cuisine is relevant

Holy FUCK I just realized why they're called kidney beans. Jesus Christ, I'm feeling so stupid right now. God damn

>>11966681
Don't feel bad, I thought they were kidney beans too before I read the filename.

>>11964252
they literally taste like sewer. i'm not even being picky.. the texture is honestly kind of fun, but they taste like a septic system smells. no thanks.

Kidney fat is called suet and is quite valuable (used in specialty pastries). So usually the kidneys are trimmed and the fat is sold separately.

You're welcome.

>>11964252
lamb kidneys are delicious, especially fresh from a happy animal
you wanna cut out the white middles, and marinade the halves in Worcestershire sauce, tomato paste, black pepper, and olive oil (you might use lard, or the rendered fat from the suet)
after a day or so, sear these hard, then introduce some butter and the marinade, cook till they've firmed up somewhat (use a needle to check temp)
eat with a grilled tomato and glass of ale

Look up Fergus Henderson recipes for kidneys. He has lots.
Probably the most famous chef that utilizes offal.

>>11964252
I just grill them Korean style and eat 'em with gochujang or jalapenos.

Shit's good.

Make kidneys with mustard sauce

>1kg of kidneys
>salt and pepper
>1 small onion
>1dl of beef stock
>1dl of cream
>2tsp of dijon mustard
>1tbsb of cognac
>butter for frying
>parsley for ganish
Boil the kidneys for a short time, then remove from pot and remove the fat and cut into slices. Season with salt and pepper. Dice the onion. Fry the onion and the kidneys until done and take off the pan. Add the rest of the ingredients to the pan and boil it down. Pour over the meat and garnish with parsley. Serve with mashed potatoes and steamed vegetables.

who is to say that it isn't the zoomers who are lying just so they don't go to social prison?

I must be doing something wrong or must be getting shit meat because I tried cooking these a couple of ways and they tasted like piss both times.

>>11969073
Most recipes start with a process to extract the ammonia

>>11969073
Soak them for like 3 hours and just to be sure parboil them before frying

Pie went well lads, thanks for the suggestion. I'll keep that recipe in mind for next time.

>>11964309
Well that just sounds pretentious and gay.

why would they name an organ after a bean lmao

>>11970226
Next time plan ahead and marinate the steak in a dark stout (E.g. Guinness). Thank me later.

>>11970392
They named part of your brain after a seahorse. I guess it's not that far fetched.

>>11970466
Explain.

>>11964252
Kidneys are the only organ meat I can't stand. No matter how long and in what you soak them they still taste like piss.

>>11964252
steak and kidney pie

>>11971479
flambee them with cognac anon

>>11970211
I soaked them in vinegar, then discarded, resoaked in water, then discarded, but I didn't parboil. I'll try again. Thank you.
