What is the best way to go about cooking beef brains?

Answer by  patti (29325)

Soak the brains in cold water for 60 minutes; pull off any skin and membranes. Boil in salted water for ten minutes, then set in ice water until again firm. Cut them into small pieces and layerer in a buttered baking dish with bits of ham, butter and seasoning. Cover with stock. Bake at 400 degrees F until browned.

Beef brain is very hard to get in most areas but you can special-order it. I make the best tacos by using it instead of ground beef. Simmer the brains for 2-3 hours in water mixed with a packet of taco seasoning. When very tender, chop and use as you would any taco meat. Yummy.

You soak the brain for 1 hour. This releases the empurities. Then you can fry or bake the brains. The French and Spanish use brains in their dishes.
