My thoughts:

Growing upwards my dad would tell "what am I chopped liver?" whenever he felt he was beingness overlooked for something; implying that chopped liver was something no ane wanted. Matt on the other hand, grew upwards eating chopped liver together with it was quite an enjoyable affair indeed. Now that nosotros are married, nosotros brand chopped liver together with it is tasty! We similar coarser texture similar the ane Matt's grandmother made therefore nosotros create it all yesteryear paw versus using a grinder or nutrient processor. Smoother textured chopped liver is okay simply non our favorite! We bring given chopped liver a lot of thought, perchance to a greater extent than than anyone else has to such a unproblematic dish.  We've had chopped liver at delis that is slightly sugariness which nosotros didn't peculiarly similar together with institute puzzling until I figured out I bet they add together vino (a mutual variation or cognac) together with since the delis are kosher, I'm certain they were using kosher vino which tin live on quite sweet. This is non a sugariness or smoothen chopped liver simply it is delicious together with perfect for smearing on a fleck of onion together with egg matzo.
