Mary picked up four pounds of the stuff on Friday, keeping two pounds in the fridge for my use and throwing the rest in the freezer for later. I&#8217;ve been munching on its beautiful richness quite a bit on its own with just a fork as usual, and every time I do I seem to get a bit more energy.<\/p>\n<p>On this Easter morning we&#8217;ve been taking it kinda easy. I haven&#8217;t cooked in more than a week and felt it was time to actually get up and get myself something instead of having Mary or someone else do it. I wanted eggs but of course felt the coarse liverwurst would end up being a side dish anyway. That&#8217;s when Aaron suggested I make a Coarse Liverwurst Omelet. That sounded pretty darn good.<\/p>\n<p>I decided I wanted to saut\u00e9 the liverwurst, as it would need to be like the meat in the Fried Egg &amp; Spam dish that&#8217;s popular in Hawaii. Adding chopped onion to it would also give it the texture of a handmade corned beef hash. With the liverwurst being as rich as it is I knew I wouldn&#8217;t want a strong cheese in the omelet. I needed a mild cheese to balance the flavors, and Muenster seemed a better choice than Swiss because of the additional creaminess offsetting the texture of the saut\u00e9ed liverwurst and onion.<\/p>\n<p>The amounts used in this recipe are certainly to taste &#8230; I used a lot more of the liverwurst than most people would, cutting a bit more than an inch off the loaf and skinning it before breaking it up into chunks. Without adding oil or butter to the omelet pan, I saut\u00e9ed the coarse liverwurst and a few teaspoons of chopped yellow onion until the liverwurst broke down into smaller pieces and the onion was translucent. This I drained on some paper towel.<\/p>\n<p>After wiping out the pan, I melted a tablespoon of unsalted butter then made a 3-egg omelet over medium-high heat the normal way, seasoning with our standard staple for eggs, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.aldenmillhouse.com\" target=\"_blank\">Alden Mill House<\/a> <em>Miracle Blend<\/em>. (A combination of Kosher salt, black pepper, granulated garlic and other spices, a product made in Alden near Torch Lake here in Michigan, and also available at Kilgus Meats in Toledo.) When the omelet was almost ready, I added the still-warm meat and topped it with the slices of Muenster cheese.<\/p>\n<p>This turned out to be a lot better then even I thought it would. I hadn&#8217;t overcooked the liverwurst so it was still nice and moist. I might have wanted to add a third slice of the cheese for more creaminess, but it was still a good amount. This is something I&#8217;ll make again, especially when a couple more of my boys are home and I&#8217;ll have the strength to cook it for them.<\/p>\n<p>As it was though, when I sat down to eat it, I was sweating and short of breath from the exertion of actually doing something. Obviously, I still have a long road ahead.<\/p>\n<p><em>Thanks for the suggestion, Aaron!<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Having suffered my first sinus bleed in three years last weekend (a rather bad episode I might add, with about three pints of blood loss), I found myself once again in need of the wonderful healing properties of the Coarse Liverwurst from Kilgus Meats in Toledo.
