El Duderino alerts us to a Bolivian “delicacy” you may want to either seek out or pass on, depending on your sexual whims and/or strength of stomach.
He also suggests a serving of it for Simon Romero, the NYT’s resident plagiarizin’ fool. I agree, although I suspect he may eat it with rather more relish than most of us would. Y’see, there’s something about Simon…Anyhow, there are times when I’m seriously glad to be a woman, and this is one of them. I have never felt the urge to prove my genderness by eating a soup made from some other creature’s ovaries, and I never will.PS: Whaddya bet Evo’s never eaten this soup? He sure as hell doesn’t need it.
Bina,
Listen to the audio link here … it’s fun:

Btw, goat kidneys and balls are also a delicacy in Punjabi cuisine … I think they have it in the UK too … isn’t that what “sweetbread” or something is?
“Sweetbreads” include the thymus and spleen, if I’m not mistaken. I know they eat the latter in Germany, and lungs, too. They also eat headcheese, which I’ve never been able to stomach. I have trouble just with hotdogs nowadays.
Oops, that was a mistake. Sweetbreads are thymus glands.
Look at this picture:

Are those whitish things testicles? I see hearts and kidneys in there.
BTW, I’ve got a delicious recipe for beef heart that I should post one of these days. And I make a Yugo-German schaschlik to kill for (with liver and kidneys), too.
(That Henry Ramos Allup rap is hilarious, in a Cloony the Clown sort of way.)
Yeah, those whitish thingies are goats testicles.
