gratus fermentatio

Recipes 

I like to use heart in a stir-fry with veggies, but it also goes great in soups & stews. It's a chewy textured meat & doesn't get as tender as say, brisket, but it's very good; in fact it's one of my favourites. Try slicing heart into pieces about the size of your index finger & doing a stir-fry with butter, a little onion, and about a cup of white wine, say riesling. Let it simmer till the wine reduces by 1/2. You can also sub some stout or porter for the wine if you like. You can add anything you like, veggies, spices, herbs, etc... I like to add some crimini mushrooms & just let it simmer till it gets kinda thick, then I just pour it over some long grain & wild rice, I also like to drizzle a little bit of honey on top just before serving. Just about anything that you would use beef in, you can use venison, or venison heart. Regards, GF.

I always take it, slice it about 1/4" thick and then into a pan preheated over high heat with some Olive Oil. Brown it one side, flip and then splash with a little Soy and Worsteshire and let that thicken a little. Goes great with fried eggs. It should be medium-rare.

I don't eat it, but my husband loves it.

We use it in a tarragon/creamy sauce. It's kind of like a stew. I'll see if I can dig out the recipe after work today.

Recipes 

Had beef heart cooked low and slow. Say at least 6 hours at 180F. Leave the salt off, but put any spices on you like. When its done, you can cut it with a fork.

So I finally cooked the heart.

I cut it open and removed all the veins, tubes, etc.

Sliced each section and pounded them with the back side of my cleaver. egg bath and then shook in a flour/panko bread crumb mix with my prime rib rub.

fried in 350 degree canolo oil in the dutch oven for 2 minutes per side

Basically, I made country fried steak with it. Damn, was it tasty and melted in the mouth, with a nice crunchy outside.

The hell of it is, I wasn't drinking tonight so didn't pair it with a good beer. now that I know how good it is, its gonna be a "special treat" next year that I'll pick a good brew to pair it with.

I'm thinking a nut brown or a porter would go great.

We used to have this when I was a kid. Wish I could get myself to go back to hunting. But I digress. My grandma used to pickle it, and/or can it. We used to also cube it up and fry in butter and flour (classic can't-go-wrong recipe).

I haven't had it since I was pretty young, but I'd eat it again in a heartbeat if it were available. Pun intended.

I have been an avid deer hunter for years here in Iowa, but can't get past the heart thing. I take it out and usually give it away.

I used to be the same way, but now that I have eaten it It will be a regular thing.

Seriosly, if someone gave you this and didn't tell you what it was, you would think it was the best piece of deer meat you ever ate.
