Steps:

• Place liver in a nonreactive (ceramic or glass) bowl and pour milk over. Refrigerate, covered, 5 to 6 hours.
• In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons butter over medium-high heat. When butter is shimmering, add onions. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent, 5 to 10 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low and continue to cook, stirring more frequently until onions are very soft and brown, 30 to 40 minutes more.
• Drain liver and discard milk. Pat liver dry with paper towels.
• Spread flour on a plate and season with salt and pepper. Thoroughly coat liver with the flour mixture, shaking off excess.
• Heat a large (13-inch) saute pan over medium heat and add remaining 2 tablespoons butter and the oil and heat until shimmering. Cook (in batches, if necessary, to avoid crowding pan) until liver is firm (but not hard) and browned on the outside but still slightly pink in the center, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Repeat with remaining liver, adding more oil to the pan as necessary. Add sage and cook for 1 minute more.
• Divide liver among plates and top with onions.

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in medium skillet over medium high heat. Lightly flour liver and place in pan and sear for 5 seconds and flip. Add arugula and garlic and quickly saute Deglaze with balsamic vinegar and serve over onion tart, recipe follows.
• For the Tart: Render diced bacon until crispy. Add butter, onion, rosemary and cook until tender. Season with salt and pepper. Roll out dough and plate filling in middle and top with blue cheese. Fold over edges and bake in a preheated 500 degree oven until golden brown, approximately 10 to 12 minutes. Serve with calves liver.

Steps:

• 1. Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crisp but not burned. Using a slotted spoon, remove bacon to paper towels to drain. Set aside, covered with foil to keep warm.
• 2. In the same skillet, cook the onions over medium heat until wilted and golden, stirring occasionally, about 20 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon to a bowl, cover and keep warm.
• 3. Cook the liver, 2 slices at a time, for about 1 1/2 minutes per side for medium-rare, adding butter to the skillet if needed. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• 4. Cut each liver slice on the diagonal into 6 pieces. Arrange on a serving platter and cover loosely with foil.
• 5. Add vinegar and broth to the skillet; bring to a boil, scraping up any brown bits. Add the reserved onions and toss over medium heat for 1 minute to warm through; spoon over the liver and top with bacon. Sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Soak liver in milk 15 minutes.
• Cook pancetta in 1 teaspoon oil in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until crisp, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain, leaving fat in skillet.
• Discard milk and pat liver dry. Stir together flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper on a piece of wax paper or a plate and dredge liver in mixture, knocking off excess.
• Add remaining 2 teaspoons oil to fat in skillet and heat over medium-high heat until hot. Cook liver, turning once, until browned but still pink in center, about 4 minutes total. Transfer to plates.
• Melt 1 tablespoon butter in skillet over medium-high heat, then sauté scallions until softened, about 1 minute. Add Sherry, water, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper and boil until reduced slightly, about 1 minute. Remove from heat and stir in remaining tablespoon butter until incorporated. Spoon over liver and sprinkle with pancetta.

Steps:

• Gently rinse liver slices under cold water, and place in a medium bowl. Pour in enough milk to cover. Let stand while preparing onions. (I like to soak up to an hour or two - whatever you have time for.) This step is SO important in taking the bitter taste of the liver out.
• Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Separate onion rings, and saute them in butter until soft. Remove onions, and melt remaining butter in the skillet. Season the flour with salt and pepper, and put it in a shallow dish or on a plate. Drain milk from liver, and coat slices in the flour mixture.
• When the butter has melted, turn the heat up to medium-high, and place the coated liver slices in the pan. Cook until nice and brown on the bottom. Turn, and cook on the other side until browned. Add onions, and reduce heat to medium. Cook a bit longer to taste. Our family prefers the liver to just barely retain a pinkness on the inside when you cut to check. Enjoy!

Steps:

• Place a large skillet over medium heat, and add pancetta. Cook (with no additional oil) until crispy on both sides. Transfer to a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.
• Return skillet to medium heat and add butter. When it foams, add slices of liver and cook for about 2 minutes a side, or to taste. Add liver to plate of pancetta and cover to keep warm.
• Return skillet to medium heat, and add Marsala, stirring with a wooden spoon to deglaze the pan. When it bubbles and becomes syrupy, turn off the heat. Arrange liver on a large plate, and pour the Marsala sauce over it. Crumble pancetta on top, and garnish with chopped parsley. Serve immediately.
