Pork kidney is smooth and flat, shaped like a classic kidney bean, except far larger of course. The younger the pig it's from, the more tender it will be and the milder the taste. Ones from young pigs will be a pale reddish brown; ones from older pigs a dark reddish brown. Pork Kidney is stronger tasting than lamb kidney, but a bit less strong tasting than beef kidney. Saute with garlic, anchovies, capers, and hot chili pepper flakes and pair with pasta. |
