Before cooking, it is important to prepare the lamb's liver. This usually involves rinsing it under cold water and then trimming away any tough membranes or veins. Some cooks prefer to soak the liver in milk for a short period to mellow its flavor. Once prepared, it can be sliced or left whole and then cooked quickly over medium-high heat. Overcooking can make the liver tough, so aim for a tender, slightly pink interior.
How it differs from similar foods
Lamb's liver is generally milder in flavor and more tender than beef or pork liver. Its smaller size also means it cooks more quickly. The texture is often described as finer than other types of liver.
