About Lamb kidney
Lamb kidney is the edible kidney of a sheep, generally sold whole and trimmed of surrounding fat and connective tissue. It is small, dark reddish-brown and compact, with a tender but slightly firm texture when cooked.
It is commonly grilled, pan-cooked or braised, and has a pronounced, savoury flavour. Preparation and trimming affect both texture and the edible portion. Fresh and cooked kidneys should not be treated as identical forms when comparing measured composition.
