About Our Ox Liver
Liver is the most nutrient-dense thing we sell. A single serving of ox liver carries more vitamin A, B12, iron and folate than almost any other food on the counter, which is why it has been a staple of Kenyan home cooking for generations and why doctors still recommend it for anaemia.
Freshness is everything with liver, more than with any muscle cut. Ours comes in with the carcass and is sold the same day, sliced to order rather than sitting pre-cut in a tray. Fresh liver is glossy, deep reddish-brown and firm; it should never smell strong. If you want it thin for a quick fry, say so and we will slice it at about 1cm.
The most common mistake with liver is cooking it too long. It goes from tender to grainy in under a minute. Cook it hot and fast, take it out while the centre is still faintly pink, and let it rest. A soak in milk beforehand mellows the mineral edge if you find liver strong. Our beef kidney and gizzards sit in the same family of quick-cooking offal.
How to Cook Ox Liver
- Soak in milk for 30 minutes to mellow the flavour, then pat completely dry.
- Slice about 1cm thick - thicker slices overcook on the outside before the middle is warm.
- Very hot pan, 90 seconds a side, and take it off while faintly pink inside.
- Season after cooking, not before: salt draws moisture and makes liver weep.
- Onions cooked down slowly first, then liver in the same pan, is still the best way to eat it.
