Cooking instruction summary:

Procedures 1 Fill a large pot with water. Slice a lemon in half, squeeze each half into the pot, then drop in the lemon. Fill a bowl big enough to accommodate all the sweetbreads with ice and cold water. Bring pot to a gentle boil and blanch the sweetbreads until just firm. Keep in mind sweetbreads will cook at different rates depending on their size, so check them often. The cooking time will vary from 4-10 minutes. Once each is firm, remove from water with a slotted spoon and place in ice water bath. 2 Once sweetbreads are cool, remove skin and fat, and gently divide sweetbreads into equally sized knobs (about the size of 1/2 a small lemon is my preference). Season the sweetbreads with salt and pepper and place sweetbreads between two sheet pans, place two large cans on top, and place in the fridge for an hour. 3 Combine grated carrots and scallions with juice from remaining lemon, drizzle with olive oil and season to taste with salt and pepper. Reserve. 4 Preheat oven to 300°F. Once sweetbreads are pressed, coat each piece with flour, then eggs, them breadcrumbs. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet and fry sweetbreads in small batches, keeping the finished sweetbreads warm in the oven. Serve sweetbreads immediately with carrot salad and lemon wedges, and if available, a large glass of Saison.

Food Joke

The dinner party Freda and Moshe Levy won 8 million pounds in the National Lottery. They immediately went out to begin a life of living in luxury. They bought a luxurious mansion in Northwood, surrounded themselves with all the material wealth imaginable and decided to hire a butler. After much searching, they found the perfect one. One day, they instructed the butler to set up a dinner for four because they were inviting their friends, the Cohens, over for dinner and they will be going out for the day. When they returned that evening, they found the table set for six. When they asked the butler why six places were set when they specifically instructed him to set the table for four, the butler replied: "The Cohens called and said that they were bringing the Bagels."
