Chicken livers

Post by saint-spoon »

Since the recent conversion of many folk to the free range lobby and subsequent scarcity of free range chickens in the shops the situation seems to have improved and there has been a marked improvement over the past couple of weeks in availability. You can buy whole birds and the full range of cuts but I have yet to find any free range chicken livers. Obviously the bird has died to provide stock for supermarket shelves so why isn’t the whole bird available to buy? confused>

What happens to them? they must exist because there is free range chickens on the shelf...do they all become free range pate or something or do the posh restaurants buy them all up to sell on for huge profits? confused>

I make chicken liver paté and I can sometimes get free range livers from my butcher. It tastes delicious either way. (Could it be the brandy?)

All of our local butchers (of which there used to be ffive only ten years ago) have been forced out of business by the big super markets.

My butcher doesn't have a shop he gave it up when the rules and regs got too much for a one man band. He has a band of customers, most of which are pubs, restaurants, institutions etc and can't do cold meats because he hasn't got time to all the paperwork (and pay all the fees) this intails. He has only been a butcher for about 40 years so what does he know. He does know where to find good meat!
