Pork liver cutlets

Fast, simple, cheap, but no less delicious. Since childhood I have loved liver cutlets. Mom often made them at my request. However, mostly from beef liver, so it is more rich in iron than pork. And this is very important for maintaining the level of hemoglobin in the blood. I don't really bother with which liver to cook cutlets from - whatever you take, it will turn out very tasty. Pork liver patties are obtained, perhaps, more tender and soft than beef. Well, there is a smaller pork liver.

Pork liver is a storehouse of useful substances for the human body. It is rich in vitamin A, trace elements such as zinc, copper and iron, as well as essential amino acids. Pork liver differs from veal and beef by its porous structure in the cut area. Liver dishes saturate the body with beneficial enzymes that improve digestion and assimilation of nutrients. Liver dishes slow down the aging process, restore immunity, prevent the formation of cancerous tumors and diabetes mellitus, improve the absorption of calcium and the breakdown of proteins, promote the growth of hair and nails. 

Therefore, a liver dish should be in the diet at least once a week, as well as fish.

But not every pork liver is useful, as it can be infected with harmful bacteria. In addition, it may be damaged as a result of improper storage. Therefore, you need to choose the liver carefully. And store in the refrigerator for a short time. The faster you cook after purchase, the better.
