Pork Heart
About
Pork heart is part of the pork offal which also includes the kidney, liver, sweetbreads and other internal organs of the pig. Some people shy away from eating pork hearts, which is their loss because the heart is tender and has a very delicate flavor.
Pork heart should first be rinsed in cold water, have the blood vessels and connective tissues removed, marinated in your favorite sauce then sauteed or grilled. Avoid overcooking this meat because it becomes very tough when cooked well-done.
