• sweetbreads
• 1 part white vinegar
• 8 parts cold water
• salt
• extra virgin olive oil
• salt and pepper
• optional: a little dry mustard or chili powder
• onion, chopped large
• fresh lime juice

Rinse sweetbreads. Put in a large pot and add vinegar, water, and salt (a tablespoon or two for each pound of sweetbreads).

Bring to a boil, and reduce to simmer for 10 minutes. Drain. Cool sweetbreads in a bowl of ice water.

Pat sweetbreads dry, and toss with a little olive oil. Season with some salt and pepper, and optional seasonings.

Put the sweetbreads on skewers, interspersed with onion slices.

Grill until done.

Whisk fresh lime juice with a little olive oil, salt, and other seasonings as desired to make a lime vinaigrette. Baste finished sweetbreads with the lime vinaigrette.

Serve with rice, maybe yuca or tortillas on the side.

Preparation time: 25 minutes
