Calf's liver with red wine and onions is a quick and hearty dish. The red wine complements the rich, nutty flavor of the liver, and the onion adds a nice bright contrasting flavor. Good liver is velvety in texture and not at all bitter, although its flavor is distinctive.

Making this dish is so easy it doesn't deserve the word 'recipe.' Just chop an onion, sauté in a dash of oil or butter, add the liver, brown a little, and then add a splash of red wine. Cook until the meat is how you like it, salt and pepper to taste, and kiss your iron deficiencies goodbye!
