Offal

Offal of Sturgeon includes heart, liver, and related organs for regional cookery. Clean carefully; cook the same day. Strong flavours need simple seasoning. Keep sturgeon offal iced until cooking; pat dry for browning, and stop when just opaque. Smoking, grilling steaks, and confit suit the cut. Season with salt, acid, and fat that frame dense almost boneless texture.
