Steps:

• 1. In a heavy 12-inch skillet melt 2 Tbsp. of the butter over moderate heat. Add the onions and saute 5 to 7 minutes, stirring often, until limp and golden; transfer to a large bowl and reserve.
• 2. Melt 2 more Tbsp. of the butter in the skillet, add the apples, and saute about 5 minutes, stirring often, until golden; transfer to a separate bowl and reserve.
• 3. Dredge the liver in the flour, shaking off any excess. Melt the remaining butter in the skillet over high heat and, as soon as it foams up and subsides, add half the liver and brown 2 to 3 minutes on a side, depending on whether you like liver rare or medium-rare. (I like mine well done, so I will cook longer, covered.)
• 4. Lift the browned slices to a heated platter and sprinkle each lightly with salt and pepper. Tent with foil to keep warm. Add the remaining liver to the skillet and brown as before. Transfer to the platter and season with salt and pepper.
• 5. Pile the onions and apples on top of the liver, sprinkle with the parsley and serve.

CALF'S LIVER WITH APPLES AND ONIONS

Steps:

• In a large skillet cook the bacon over moderate heat until it is crisp, transfer it to paper towels to drain, and pour off all but 2 tablespoons of the fat. To the fat remaining in the skillet add 2 tablespoons of the butter and cook the onions in the fat over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until they are softened and light golden. Add the apples, cored and cut into eighths, and cook the mixture until the apples are light golden. Add the vinegar, the sugar, and the wine, bring the mixture to a boil, and boil it for 3 minutes, or until it is thickened. Transfer the mixture to a heated platter.
• In the skillet, cleaned, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons butter over high heat until the foam subsides and in it sauté the liver, patted dry, turning it, for 3 to 4 minutes, or until it is browned and slightly pink within. Arrange the liver over the apple mixture, sprinkle the bacon, crumbled, and the chopped parsley over it, and garnish the platter with the parsley sprigs and the lemon wedges.

SAUTEED CALF'S LIVER

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:

• Preheat the oven to 250*. In a heavy 10-to12-inch skillet, melt 2 Tblsp. of the butter over moderate heat. When the foam subsides, add the onion rings, a little salt and a few grindings of pepper. Stirring occasionally, cook the onion rings for about 10 minutes, or until they are light brown.
• With a slotted spoon, transfer them to a heatproof plate, cover them loosely with foil and place in the preheated oven. Add 2 Tblsp. of butter to the skillet and drop in half of the apple rings. Cook them until they are golden on both sides, add them to the plate with the onions rings and cook the remaining apple slices similarly in another 2 Tblsp. of butter.
• Keep the apples and onions warm in the oven while you cook the liver. Season the liver slices with salt and a few grindings of pepper. Dip the slices in flour, then vigorously shake off any excess. Add the remaining 2 Tblsp. of butter to the skillet and melt the butter over moderate heat.
• When the foam subsides add the liver and cook it for 2 minutes on each side, or until the slices are light brown, turning them with kitchen tongs. Do not overcook. Remove the liver to a heated platter and scatter the apple and onion rings over it and serve at once.
