Liver

Liver of Yak is soft and iron-rich—flash-sear or pâté. Never overcook to chalk. Use same day. Cook yak liver to temperature when thickness varies, rest before carving, and add fat or sauce if lean. Grilling, stewing, and dried meat show the cut’s strengths. Match heat to collagen—fast sear for tender muscle, long moist heat for hard-working joints.
