What a waste of good food; the heart, liver, kidneys and the brain.
The stomach makes a great soup with black pepper!
The heart is great stir fried with any vegie.
Liver is absolute tasty in rice porridge with the kidneys (most expensive part here). Liver is also made into a soup with slices of ginger for the anemic.
Brain is steamed or fried with eggs.
There, with what is thrown away, a whole delicious and healthy meal is more than enough for a Chinese family of 6!
