pork liver
Swine's filtering organ
Pork liver is the liver of a pig, used as food.
Like other organ meats, it has a strong, distinctive flavor and dense texture.
It appears in pâtés, terrines, and traditional dishes like liverwurst and some Asian stir-fries: She sautéed pork liver with onions.
Pork liver is typically less expensive than calf's liver but more intensely flavored.
