  Offal - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Offal is the entrails and internal organs of a butchered animal.
Offal not used directly for human or animal food is often processed in a rendering plant, producing material that is used for animal feed, fertilizer or fuel.
In Korea and Japan, offal (especially from cattle) is often served in Korean barbecue restaurants.

 Offal - Facts, Information, and Encyclopedia Reference article
Offal may be used for human consumption as food, or, often after processing in a rendering plant, for animal feed, fertilizer or fuel.
When offal is included as an ingredient in animal feed, it is listed under the name "meat byproducts", one of a number of ingredients that may be so listed.
In American English, the words offal and awful are virtually homonyms — one dictionary shows the pronunciation of awful as being the same as the most-frequent pronunciation of offal — a fact which offers opportunity for some really bad puns.

 Seabirds and other Marine Vertebrates - 1988
Quantities of offal and discards produced depend firstly on the fishing method employed and the ways in which the fish are processed, so that observations were made on a number of different types of fishing vessels.
From analyses of the mass of offal in relation to fish mass (table 7.3) we can convert the same fish landings data to quantities of offal discharged, on the assumption that all of these species are gutted at sea and that all offal is discharged (table 7.2).
The quantities of offal and discarded fish made available to scavenging seabirds in the sea areas round the British Isles (figure 7.1) are enormous and could possibly support as many as 2.5 million 1,000-gram seabirds ltable 7.5; allowing for 25 percent of discards being lost to seabirds).

 Ardea 80(1), 1992
From these figures it is possible to derive estimates of quantities of offal and discards produced, from published data on discard rates and fish composition, and from observations of fishermen working at sea.
The mass of offal that may be available to seabirds can be estimated by multiplying the data on catches in fisheries areas by the above figures for offal mass as a proportion of fish mass.
Small fishing boats without shelter decks tend to discharge a steady trickle of offal as fish are cleaned, but larger boats (which have come to form an increasing proportion of the fleet) tend to accumulate offal and hose large quantities overboard after fish processing.

 Offal recipes, liver, kidney, and more
Offal describes the internal organs of an animal, such as liver.
In the US, offal is not normally resident in mainstream popular cuisine, whereas in other regional and ethnic cultures and cuisines, the organs which are considered offal by most people in the United States are considered perfectly acceptable food.
Offal is relatively inexpensive and is certainly nourishing, but it must be eaten fresh.

 EAT THIS: Offal Good -- An Ode to Organ Meats   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-07)
Offal is very nearly a whole class of food in itself, encompassing everything from the heart, liver, lungs, and entrails of an animal, to the tail, feet, and head, each part with its own unique and yes, delicious, flavors.
The word “offal” actually comes from the Old English “off” and “fall,” referring to the pieces that fall from an animal carcass during butchering.
Various dictionaries refer to offal as “refuse” or “rubbish” or “waste parts,” when in fact they have much to offer nutritionally and gustatorially.

 Offal Good - Why upscale chefs are serving euphemistically named "variety meats." By Patrick Keefe
Should you be whipping up a platter of crispy pigs' tails for a cocktail party any time soon, you might find, after persuading your butcher to order the tails for you and getting the squiggly things home, that they're bristling with little, unappetizing hairs.
The publication of Henderson's book heralds a new fashion in food, already discernable in various hot restaurants in New York: offal, the organs and extremities (nose, cheeks, tail, feet) of butchered animals, has become chic.
That tradition sprung out of agrarian necessity, as did the resulting conviction that if you're going to be so indulgent as to slaughter an animal, you'd better make use of all of it, even the nasty bits.

It was very nice, and it did avoid the danger of prodding a boiling haggis too hard and ending up with haggis soup, which I've been warned about.
Even so, faggots and haggis don't look like offal - they look like meatballs (and we're back to the three B's again).
Liver and heart and kidneys look like offal and they look like something that could go horribly wrong if you don't know what you're doing.

 Anything Into Oil: Technological savvy could turn 600 million tons of turkey guts and other waste into 4 billion ...
Each day 200 tons of turkey offal will be carted to the first industrial-scale thermal depolymerIzatIon plant, recently completed In an adjacent lot, and be transformed Into various useful products, including 600 barrels of light oil.
Thermal depolymerization, Appel says, has proved to be 85 percent energy efficient for complex feedstocks, such as turkey offal: "That means for every 100 Btus in the feedstock, we use only 15 Btus to run the process." He contends the efficiency is even better for relatively dry raw materials, such as plastics.
Turkey offal, for example, can be used to produce fatty acids for soap, tires, paints, and lubricants.

It took Terence Conran, who was a design mogul before he got into food, to bring new cachet to the consumption of gristly dishes like calves’ brains and candied pig’s trotter.
Executive chef Daniel Orr even concocted an offal menu for the opening of Club Guastavino, the swanky, upstairs space in Sir Terence’s new restaurant under the Queensboro Bridge.
With the advent of a lighter springtime menu, a shimmery serving of calves’ brains in brown butter sauce and caperberries is all that remains of this ambitious undertaking, but trenchermen of the old school will find it worth the trip.
