<p>So I just tried something a little crazy and it worked! We all know that we are supposed to include grass-fed liver in our diet except some people, like me, find it too disgusting to eat in the usual ways. Yesterday after picking some up from my meat CSA, I just put it, raw, in the Vitamix, liquified it and poured the stuff into ice-cube trays (my daughter asking hopefully, 'Is that chocolate?')</p> <p>This morning I popped a cube into my morning shake (water kefir, kale, collards, coconut oil, berries, 2 egg yolks, ginger, 1/2 lemon) and I couldn't taste the liver! If anything there is a nice, complex salty aspect to the drink...the faintest hint of blood. I am so happy because I have a source of good organic cheap liver, I could just never bear the stuff. The Vitamix takes care of any textural issues, and the other shake ingredients mask the taste perfectly.</p> <p>I thought I should pass this on to others who want to consume it but just can't. Try it and let me know what you think.</p>

<p>If it gets you to eat your liver, it's brilliant. </p>

<p>If it gets me to eat my liver, it's extra brilliant.</p>

<p>Just a footnote to the liver in the Vitamix...I have just learned that the Vitamix, in spite of appearances, is not all-powerful. I dumped 2 pounds of mostly defrosted liver in, hit the switch and walked away only to have smoke come out of the bottom and the blender stop dead. In a panic I tried turning it on with nothing in the blender except water and got no response. I spent the last hour poised to order another online since it is the one appliance I use every day. Luckily the $475 pricetag gave me pause because an hour later....it's working! </p> <p>At least one moral is make sure the liver is completely defrosted...floppy and limp, and maybe only process a pound at a time. Also, if you think you've killed your Vitamix, just wait a while and try again.</p> <p>In the meantime, I am now so used to the subtle hint of blood behind the bolder raspberry and ginger flavors in my morning shake, having it without the liver cube just tastes anemic.</p> <p>We are approaching Halloween...;)</p>
