However, there is a strong case for why everyone should consider adding them as part of their regular diet.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Nose to Tail Eating<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Throughout history, our ancestors consumed food in a nose to tail fashion &#8211; eating and using every part of an animal. It was not just important for health; it was necessary for survival.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In fact, Weston A. Price, a famous dentist at the beginning of the 20<sup>th<\/sup> century traveled the world studying the health and specifically, teeth and jaws, of different people groups. What he found was that the healthiest tribes were those that prized organ meats and considered them sacred. This was especially true for pregnant and nursing mothers for growing robust and healthy babies.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-with-bone-broth-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"chicken liver and heart with bone broth\" class=\"wp-image-1877\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-with-bone-broth-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-with-bone-broth-600x400.jpg 600w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-with-bone-broth-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-with-bone-broth-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-with-bone-broth-1170x780.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-with-bone-broth-585x390.jpg 585w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-with-bone-broth-263x175.jpg 263w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-with-bone-broth-250x167.jpg 250w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-with-bone-broth-550x367.jpg 550w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-with-bone-broth-800x533.jpg 800w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-with-bone-broth-270x180.jpg 270w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-with-bone-broth-450x300.jpg 450w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-with-bone-broth-750x500.jpg 750w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-with-bone-broth.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In more recent time, since the industrial revolution and factory farming, food habits greatly shifted. Including how meat is consumed. Where meat was once viewed as a delicacy to be prized it could now be found in abundance. With that, muscle meats have grown in popularity while organ meats have gone almost completely untouched for several decades.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Our Story &#8211; Is Eating Liver Good for You?<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can read more about my story of <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/how-liver-changed-my-life\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">how liver changed my life<\/a><\/strong>. But to give you the cliff notes, after trying to get pregnant for years, I began incorporating organ meats daily into my diet &#8211; specifically liver. Within a couple of months, I was pregnant with our oldest child. Since then, in two separate incidents when I stopped my habit of consuming organ meats regularly. I actually had dreams nudging me to get those organs back into my diet, clearly the body knows what it needs!<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Since moving to our farmstead property and raising our own meat, we not only feel compelled to include organ meat for the health benefits but also out of respect for the animal. We strive to raise our animals in the best possible environment and we are so grateful for their lives and all of the nourishment that they provide us. We would want to use every possible part of the animal that we could.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/beginners-guide-to-processing-chickens-at-home-1024x768.png\" alt=\"beginners guide to processing chickens at home\" class=\"wp-image-1456\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/beginners-guide-to-processing-chickens-at-home-1024x768.png 1024w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/beginners-guide-to-processing-chickens-at-home-600x450.png 600w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/beginners-guide-to-processing-chickens-at-home-300x225.png 300w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/beginners-guide-to-processing-chickens-at-home-768x576.png 768w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/beginners-guide-to-processing-chickens-at-home-500x375.png 500w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/beginners-guide-to-processing-chickens-at-home-1170x878.png 1170w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/beginners-guide-to-processing-chickens-at-home-585x439.png 585w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/beginners-guide-to-processing-chickens-at-home-250x188.png 250w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/beginners-guide-to-processing-chickens-at-home-550x413.png 550w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/beginners-guide-to-processing-chickens-at-home-800x600.png 800w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/beginners-guide-to-processing-chickens-at-home-240x180.png 240w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/beginners-guide-to-processing-chickens-at-home-400x300.png 400w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/beginners-guide-to-processing-chickens-at-home-667x500.png 667w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/beginners-guide-to-processing-chickens-at-home.png 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On our 5-acre property, raising chickens for meat has been a great addition to the farm. We have plenty of space for them to enjoy fresh pasture and they do a great job of adding fertilization. After we raised and processed over 60<a href=\"https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/cornish-cross-vs-freedom-ranger-chickens\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> freedom ranger chickens<\/a> this summer, we had a bag of chicken hearts and livers waiting for us in the freezer.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Chicken Heart and Liver Nutrition<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While <a href=\"https:\/\/chriskresser.com\/natures-most-nutritious-superfood\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">beef liver<\/a> is considered the gold standard as far as nutrient density for organ meats, the organ meats from all animals that are raised in good conditions and fed a proper diet, are still extremely nutrient dense, including chicken heart and liver.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Below is a quick breakdown of the nutritional information, specifically in chicken liver as compared to chicken breast.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\">\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Nutrient<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>Chicken Liver (1 oz)<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>Chicken Breast (1 oz)<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Calories<\/td>\n<td>48 calories<\/td>\n<td>55 calories<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Fat<\/td>\n<td>1.8 grams<\/td>\n<td>2.2 grams<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Vitamin A<\/td>\n<td>81%<\/td>\n<td>.6%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Riboflavin<\/td>\n<td>38%<\/td>\n<td>2%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Folate<\/td>\n<td>39%<\/td>\n<td>.2%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Vitamin B12<\/td>\n<td>99%<\/td>\n<td>1.4%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Selenium<\/td>\n<td>35%<\/td>\n<td>10%<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Clearly, from a nutritional standpoint, chicken liver outshines the breast significantly. Chicken liver is especially high in vitamin A and B12 while containing significant amounts of many essential vitamins and minerals. Chicken heart is also extremely nutrient dense and is especially high in the B vitamins, specifically B12, along with zinc and copper.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to Eat Chicken Heart and Liver<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Hopefully, you\u2019re convinced that eating organ meats and specifically chicken heart and liver is a good idea. But how?<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The beauty of the organ meats of chicken, like chicken heart and liver is that they are much milder than the organ meats of other animals. While it can be difficult for many to stomach the smell or taste of cooking and eating beef liver, chicken heart and liver is much more palatable.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you are adventurous, simply frying up chicken heart and liver together in a frying pan with some salt and seasonings can be a great way to enjoy them.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, because I like to spread out our consumption of organ meats to a little bit everyday as opposed to everything at one sitting, I prefer a different method.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/mixing-chicken-liver-and-heart-paste-into-eggs-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"mixing chicken liver and heart paste into eggs\" class=\"wp-image-1881\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/mixing-chicken-liver-and-heart-paste-into-eggs-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/mixing-chicken-liver-and-heart-paste-into-eggs-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/mixing-chicken-liver-and-heart-paste-into-eggs-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/mixing-chicken-liver-and-heart-paste-into-eggs-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/mixing-chicken-liver-and-heart-paste-into-eggs-480x270.jpg 480w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/mixing-chicken-liver-and-heart-paste-into-eggs-1170x658.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/mixing-chicken-liver-and-heart-paste-into-eggs-585x329.jpg 585w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/mixing-chicken-liver-and-heart-paste-into-eggs-250x141.jpg 250w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/mixing-chicken-liver-and-heart-paste-into-eggs-550x309.jpg 550w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/mixing-chicken-liver-and-heart-paste-into-eggs-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/mixing-chicken-liver-and-heart-paste-into-eggs-320x180.jpg 320w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/mixing-chicken-liver-and-heart-paste-into-eggs-533x300.jpg 533w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/mixing-chicken-liver-and-heart-paste-into-eggs-889x500.jpg 889w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/mixing-chicken-liver-and-heart-paste-into-eggs.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<div id=\"recipejump\"><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Making Pureed Chicken Heart and Liver<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My solution is to puree chicken heart and liver together (you could also do just one or the other). This way, I can put a few spoonful\u2019s of the puree into something we are already eating each day. Everyone in our family gets the benefits, from the pickiest of eaters to the most adventurous, and no one can even tell that it\u2019s there.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 1<\/h3>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To make this puree, begin by lightly saut\u00e9ing your chicken heart and liver on a frying pan with a spoonful of fat \u2013 lard or butter are our favorite. When you are saut\u00e9ing, think rare steak as opposed to a well-cooked piece of meat.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 2<\/h3>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After the chicken heart and liver are cooked, place them into a high-powered blender (we love our <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3RPZFhE\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Vitamix<\/a>) or a food processor. You may need to add a small amount of liquid to make it easier to blend. I generally use roughly a quarter to a half cup of chicken broth, depending on how many chicken hearts and livers I\u2019m pureeing. Add salt and any other spices of choice and blend until a smooth paste is formed.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-in-vitamix-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"chicken liver and heart in vitamix\" class=\"wp-image-1879\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-in-vitamix-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-in-vitamix-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-in-vitamix-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-in-vitamix-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-in-vitamix-480x270.jpg 480w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-in-vitamix-1170x658.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-in-vitamix-585x329.jpg 585w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-in-vitamix-250x141.jpg 250w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-in-vitamix-550x309.jpg 550w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-in-vitamix-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-in-vitamix-320x180.jpg 320w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-in-vitamix-533x300.jpg 533w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-in-vitamix-889x500.jpg 889w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-in-vitamix.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 3<\/h3>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From there I spoon it out and fill a tray of silicone molds.

For our family, we generally go through a muffin cup size portion of pureed heart and liver every 2-3 days.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-paste-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"chicken liver and heart paste\" class=\"wp-image-1878\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-paste-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-paste-600x338.jpg 600w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-paste-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-paste-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-paste-480x270.jpg 480w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-paste-1170x658.jpg 1170w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-paste-585x329.jpg 585w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-paste-250x141.jpg 250w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-paste-550x309.jpg 550w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-paste-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-paste-320x180.jpg 320w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-paste-533x300.jpg 533w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-paste-889x500.jpg 889w, https:\/\/fromscratchfarmstead.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/chicken-liver-and-heart-paste.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Eat Liver Every Day!<\/h2>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There you have it!
