How to Blanch Sweetbreads

Clean and neatly trim three pairs fine, heart sweetbreads. Soak them for two hours in cold water, changing the water three times. Remove from the water, drain well, and then plunge into boiling water with a teaspoon salt for five minutes. Remove, drain thoroughly, cover with a napkin, and they will be ready to use.
