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 d'oeuvres. They can be purchased in specialty gourmet markets. If you have any questions e-mail me: [email protected]

Steps:
- Place the salt and vinegar into a saucepot, with enough water to cover the sweetbreads, and bring to a boil.
- Add the sweetbreads, cover the pot, and simmer for 20 to 30 minutes.
- Drain and cover with cold water.
- Remove all membranes and tubes.
- Slice each sweetbread in half crosswise.
- Mix the flour and garlic powder together and dredge the sweetbreads in the flour mixture.
- Heat butter and oil in a skillet until very hot.
- Place the sweetbreads and shallots into the hot skillet and once you place them in, DO NOT move them around.
- When they are a light golden color on the bottom side, (about 3 to 5 minutes), with tongs, carefully turn them over to sear the other side until that side becomes a light golden color.
- Remove the sweetbreads and plate them as you desire. Garnish them with the Italian parsley leaves and serve as a wonderful appetizer.
SWEETBREAD
Steps:
- In a large bowl, combine the coconut, sugar, margarine, raisins, cherries, salt, and flour. Mix to combine.
- In a measuring cup, mix the yeast with the warm water. Add to the flour mixture, along with the egg. The dough should be sticky.
- Leave the dough in the mixing bowel and let it rest, loosely covered with plastic wrap or a kitchen towel for 1 hour, or until doubled in size.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Divide dough into 2 pieces. Gently knead each piece on a generously floured board and place in 2 buttered loaf pans. Let the dough rest until it doubles in size, once more. Bake until golden in color, about 50 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and place on a cooling rack. Mix sugar and water and brush over hot sweetbread. Leave to cool.
SWEETBREADS
Sweetbread are a gland in cattle, and this is the way my husband and I prepare them. We like them in tiny pieces, but others make them in larger portions. This method of cooking and the taste remind me a little of chicken hearts, only better. One pound of sweetbreads makes plenty for 2 people using our method.

Steps:
- Tear the sweetbread apart into 1 inch sections. Discard the stringy ligaments that hold it together. Rinse with water as you go. Dip the slightly wet sweetbreads into flour.

GRILLED SWEETBREADS
Steps:
- Rinse sweetbreads well, then transfer to a 6-quart pot and add water, vinegar, and salt. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce heat and simmer gently 10 minutes. Drain sweetbreads in a colander, then transfer to a bowl of ice and cold water to cool.
- While sweetbreads are cooling, prepare grill for cooking over direct heat with medium-hot charcoal (moderately high heat for gas; see "Grilling Procedure").
- Drain sweetbreads, then pat dry gently and separate into roughly 1 1/2-inch pieces (about 20) using your fingers. Toss sweetbread pieces with oil in a bowl, then thread onto skewers (about 5 pieces on each). Season with salt and pepper.
- Grill sweetbreads on lightly oiled grill rack (covered only if using a gas grill), turning occasionally, until golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes total. Transfer to a platter and let stand, loosely covered with foil, 5 minutes.

Steps:
- Soak sweetbreads in a large bowl of ice water in the refrigerator, changing water occasionally (2 or 3 times), at least 8 hours.
- Drain sweetbreads and transfer to a 4-quart heavy saucepan. Cover with cold water by 1 inch and add 1 teaspoon salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, until sweetbreads plump and feel slightly firmer to the touch, about 3 minutes. Drain in a colander and transfer to an ice bath to stop cooking. Cut away any fat and pull away as much membrane and connective tissue as possible with a small paring knife, then separate with your fingers into roughly 2-inch pieces.
- Whisk buttermilk with 1/2 teaspoon salt in a bowl. Add sweetbreads and soak, chilled, 1 hour.
- About 10 minutes before sweetbreads are finished soaking in buttermilk, start heating 2 inches oil to 350°F in a 5-quart wide heavy pot over medium heat. Whisk together flour, cornmeal, paprika, cayenne, and 1/2 tsp each of salt and pepper in a shallow dish.
- Put a metal cooling rack in a 4-sided sheet pan and preheat oven to 400°F.
- Drain sweetbreads well, discarding buttermilk. Dredge in flour mixture, shaking off any excess, then fry in 3 batches until golden and cooked through (cut one open to test), 3 to 3 1/2 minutes, depending on size. Transfer with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain, then season lightly with salt. Keep warm on rack in oven. (Return oil to 350deg; between batches.) Serve fried sweetbreads immediately.
