1. hervir trozos de higado
1. boil cubed liver, I used 2 kilos (4.4 lbs), next time I'll do more, smells up the house but so good! I covered the liver with water and boiled
about 15 minutes.

2. When it starts to boil, add vinegar, salt and 3 bay leaves, I used 1 pint of vinegar, could have used more, about a quarter cup of salt, could use
more
3. tirar el agua del higado
3. Drain the water from the liver
4. mezclar el higado con aceite de oliva y chiles jalapena rebanada y consume de pollo
4. mix the liver with olive oil and sliced jalapeno peppers and a little chicken consume, I used 6 jalapenos and 2 bouillon cube dissolved in a cup of
boiling water
5. agregue zanahoria rebanada, cebolla y apio (cilantro opcional)
5. Add sliced carrots, onion and celery (cilantro couldn't hurt), I used 3 carrots, 2 onions, 3 stalks of celery and a bunch of celantro.
6. mezclar todo junto y dejar reposar 10 minutos, en vasija de barro
6. mix everything together and allow to rest 10 minutes, store in crock
Sirva con chiles serranos spsados
Serve with roasted chile Serranos, a cerveza and a shot of Don Julio will make it even better
Saltee Serrano en aceite de oliva con rebanadas de cebolla y curso aplastó pimienta (ajo opcional )
Saute Serrano peppers in olive oil with sliced onion and course ground pepper (garlic couldn't hurt) . Saute until the Serrano peppers wrinkle up.
This takes out the heat but leaves a great flavor.

I've been pickling my liver for years without all that hassle. I just open a bottle and pour a shot.
All my childhood I wanted to be older. Now I\'m older and this chitn sucks.
