About Moose liver
Moose liver is the edible liver of a moose, a large wild cervid. It is a dark, dense organ meat with a pronounced savoury flavour; its texture can be tender when briefly cooked and firmer when cooked longer. It is commonly prepared in slices or pieces.
It may be pan-fried, braised, or incorporated into minced preparations, depending on local practice. Liver is distinct from moose muscle meat and from other organs, and the animal’s diet and handling can influence flavour. The name does not specify whether the liver is fresh, frozen, or cooked.
