Were does sweet bread come from?

Sweetbreads are the thymus glands and pancreas glands of lamb, beef, or pork. There are two different connected parts to the thymus gland, both set in the neck. The "heart" sweetbreads are more spherical in shape, and surrounded symmetrically by the "throat" sweetbreads, which are more cylindrical in shape. Although both are edible, the heart thymus gland is generally favored because of its delicate flavor and texture, and is thus more expensive.

Braised Sweetbreads?

Ingredients1 1/2 pounds sweetbreads Calf's1/8 teaspoon ground mace1/2 teaspoon salt1/4 teaspoon black pepper freshly ground2 tablespoons flour3 tablespoons cooking oil flavorless2 tablespoons shallot finely minced1 cup dry sherry1 cup low sodium chicken broth1/2 cup whipping cream2 tablespoons unsalted butterlemon slicePREHEAT OVEN TO 375F.Pat the sweetbreads dry and peel and discard the most obvious membranes without breaking the sweetbreads into small pieces. Mix mace, salt and pepper with flour, and dust the sweetbreads, shaking off the excess. Heat the oil in a heavy, oven-proof frying pan over medium heat on the stove and add the sweetbreads. Cook until they are dark golden on both sides, about 5 minutes per side. Do not crowd the pan or they won't brown. Tilt the pan and pour off any remaining oil and add the shallots, wine and broth and bring to a boil. Cover the skillet and transfer to the oven. Turn temperature to 325F and cook 35 minutes, turning once. Remove pan from oven and use a slotted spoon to transfer the sweetbreads to a platter. Add the cream to the cooking juices and quickly boil the liquid until it starts to become sauce-like, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and whisk in the butter. When it's time for dinner, strain the sauce over the sweetbreads; decorate with slices of lemon.


What animal does sweetmeat come from?

Sweetmeat actually doesn't come from an animal. The term 'sweetmeat' refers to a way of preserving nuts/fruits with sugar. What you are thinking of is 'sweetbreads'. Sweetbreads are taken from the thymus gland, pancreas or genitalia of young animals, most often calves, pigs or lambs. They are roundish in shape and are a favorite ingredient in many European dishes. Additionally, my Good Housekeeping cookbook categorizes cow brains as sweetbreads, so it may be used more broadly to refer to traditionally unused animal parts in American Cooking.
