Former vegan here. I can cook a piece of fish and make an omelette but meat is still foreign to me. Except what I’m learning in Krista Test Kitchen.
I bought a bag of turkey giblets from the butcher I get thighs for meat and wings for stock. This saves me a 3 hour errand because they get the same turkeys as the raw feeders co-op.
However, I realize that I don’t know a heart from a gizzard.
They came wrapped in paper all together and several of these bundles were in the bag I bought. I don’t know if one of each (liver, gizzard, heart) is included in each bundle or if some of these pieces are still stuck together (didn’t completely thaw these.). I separated them as best as I understood them. Then I put them into sandwich bags corresponding to the numbers and back into the freezer they went. Once you help me with the key, I can weigh and grind Krista’s food tonight. First batch with fresh heart!
Here’s the pictures with my guesses.
1. Heart
2. Heart
3. Gizzard
4. Gizzard
5. Gizzard?
6. Gizzard?
7. Liver
8. Liver
9. Thigh meat? I Maybe a heart? I don’t even remember and can’t tell from this picture now.
10. Liver
11. Liver
12. Gizzard
How did I do? What did you get? Just tell me I have 1&2 correct so that I can grind those into the thigh meat and make her food tonight.
Thanks!
