Fish bones have that effect on me. Large bones are grand, it's the fine hairy ones make me down tools. K8 the tubes can be off putting. Fish bones have that effect on me.

I've never tried making it myself though, but I will now! I used to love liver until one day I cut a slice and disovered a tube :/

I suppose it depends on how it was presented in childhood. No more awful offal from now on so. :lol: There seems to be no half measures when you come to liver, people like or loathe it.

I don't have a sweet tooth. I might replace the pig's livers with chicken liver's if that's alright with you? Finally . . something savoury! I don’t have a sweet tooth.

You can send me a dish of the crab salad minus the garlicky Gratin dauphinois! Blame the cream. I know I have cream & booze in my recipes but I have to make adjustments for personal consumption.

Now I'm really going to make your mouth water... This evening on the way home, I bought some huge crab claws just fresh out of the sea a few hours earlier. Crab meat is a real favourite in this house! I had some left-over cream from entertaining at the weekend so threw together a dish of garlicky Gratin dauphinois. While this was in the oven, I cooked the crab claws (15 mins) and made up a simple crab salad and then for the final touch, I dashed out to the garden (in the rain) to pick some 'purple sprouting' which was lightly steamed moments before serving.....heaven! And now I'm looking forward to next Monday's 'surprise' from Grannymar :D Grannymar - don’t mind me - you’re quite right to vary the recipes so that there’s something to suit everyone’s taste.

Next week will make up for it if you have a sweet tooth. Magpie ~ I like Lamb's Liver with bacon and onions.
