The liver is an incredibly valuable gourmet food. It contains many elements necessary for full life. The liver contains iron and copper, without which it is impossible for a person to live. Especially it contains a lot of vitamin A, which is necessary for kidney health, brain function, thick hair, good eyesight, healthy skin, strong teeth. The liver also carries out the prevention of thrombosis - it improves blood clotting. Also, doctors advise to eat it for patients with anemia to raise hemoglobin. In general, as you can see, the benefits of this offal are simply invaluable. Therefore, I recommend cooking healthy liver soups more often, and then the health of yours and your loved ones will be stronger.

To get all the vitamins you need, you first need to choose the right liver. Fresh, good pork liver should be firm, dark brown or cherry in color with a uniform color and a sweetish pleasant aroma. When you cut, you should see porosity and some graininess. In no case do not buy a liver of uneven color, pink color and with a sour smell. Such factors say that the offal is spoiled: the animal was fed with growth accelerators, or the product was stale, or the liver was frozen and thawed.
