To Broil Sweetbreads
Ingredients
Directions
Soak the sweetbreads in salt and water for 1 hour.
Drain and parboil the sweetbreads.
Rub the sweetbreads well with butter.
Broil the sweetbreads, turning them often.
Each time you turn them, roll them in a plate of hot melted butter to keep them from becoming hard and dry.
