olán recipes?
Know of any recipes particularly fitting for the delicate texture of olán de Callo de Haches? I have used them well for seafood sausage, fritters and
in a mixed-fish cioppino. Have not cared for them in sautč or stirfry. All inquiries to my neighbors about cooking food is answered by 'fritar'. I
will do that once in a while for hors doeuvre, but was hoping for some new options. The stuff is very inexpensive ready to use shellfish. Got lots
in the freezer.
I think it is part of the stomach of the Penshell Clam whose familiar round abductor muscle is sold more readily elsewhere as scallops. I hope it is
not the tender young of some endangered and beautiful creature I am unwittingly wiping out.

I think olán means frill (flouncy) for the shape. Its a somewhat half-star plump piece of callo innard.

CP is a creative foodie arteest and her seafood sausages and lobster fritters are Heavenly stuff!
How about the traditional party and potluck dish served around here- callo, crema, and Velveta cheese casserole topped with crushed Ruffles potato
chips. Not heavenly- but the thought of dying crosses your mind.

It is olán according to my neigbors. And the shape kinda works for the olán definition of frilly.
What is Holán, Lencho? I looked it up but could not find anything applicable.
