About Beef, New Zealand, imported, sweetbread, raw
Sweetbreads from New Zealand-raised cattle are the thymus or pancreatic glands, a delicacy prized in traditional European and South American cooking. The fat content is notable - this is not a lean offal - and the texture is tender and creamy when properly cleaned and seared or braised. They have almost no carbohydrates and carry a rich protein load alongside that fat. Cooks typically soak them in cold water first, then blanch and peel before a final browning in butter. An acquired taste with deep roots in nose-to-tail eating.
