About Beef udder
Beef udder is the mammary tissue of a cow, sold as an edible beef offal. Raw pieces are generally pale to cream-coloured and firm, with a structure unlike ordinary muscle cuts. Its flavour is mild and beef-like; texture can be dense or chewy unless the tissue is prepared and cooked appropriately.
It is used in some regional cuisines, often after cleaning and prolonged cooking, and may be sliced, braised, or otherwise cooked until tender. It is sold fresh or cooked, and preparation may include removal of skin or other tissue. Those differences affect the finished texture and the composition of a measured serving.
