I thought liver had to be broiled to be kosher?
Many butchers sell it ready, if yours doesn’t then you probably have to broil it, but consult a rabbi.
That looks easy and delish but here is a vegetarian one that everyone LOVES!

The directions state the mixture should be coarsely chopped, but the photo shows a silky smooth pate–?
What are dorot conions?
Dorot is a line of frozen chopped garlic, herbs and spices. They come in small red packages like mini ice cube trys so you can use a little at a time and always have it ready for cooking.
All organ meat needs to be broiled first to be kashered, and yes, some butchers can do that step for you, so you can go ahead and saute once you get them home. In Recipes Remembered, we had two delicious recipes, one from Ina Garten with a hint of thyme and madeira and another more traditional with lots of caramelized onions and chopped eggs. I like using an old fashioned hak messer- mezzaluna- to chop the livers, it gives the finished dish a bit more texture. The nice thing is, there are so many variations, this is a great starting point.
