A Little Turkish Dish Called Albanian Liver

The name of this meze, Arnavut ciğeri, literally translates to “Albanian liver.” We don’t know why this dish is called Albanian, but it is a style that can be found widely dispersed, from Vienna to central Anatolia. This recipe is identical to a dish I had in Istanbul, but some Turkish cooks bake the livers, while others use a heck of a lot more olive oil than I do. Serve with toothpicks.
