Hailed as the world´s first recipe collection of its kind, Cooking With Balls includes testicle pizza, battered testicles and and barbecued testicles with giblets.

Ljubomir Erovic, the chef behind the book, said testicles are rich in testosterone and are believed to be a powerful aphrodisiac in China as well as his homeland of Serbia.

HMMMMMM anyone know where i can get the main ingredient???

In Turkey it´s quiet common in fact, eating the testicles of sheep, and I like it, it´s delicious especially when grilled.

 Oohhh, sheep testicles...... THAT was not said in the recipes.....

 Did I say something wrong?

 Of course not, you? Nooooo!

Just that living in a town sheep testicles are not very much available here but other types..... grin....

I am not sure I like the idea of other types!!!

As a child I used to regularly eat sheep´s brains on toast for breakfast before going to school.   I recall the butcher´s shop also sold testicle but I don´t ever remamber eating them......maybe I need to try and find a good old fashioned butcher and try some.

They´re known as Rocky Mountain Oysters where I live and are greatly prized in some circles. There´s even a yearly festival featuring them:

The festival also features a lot of drunk people, drunken fights etc. so I´ve never attended it. Years ago I used to help rancher friends at branding time and sometimes was in charge of cutting the bull calves. Some of the old guys were very fond of them so we saved them and gave them to them. They claimed that the best way to serve them was diced and cooked in scrambled eggs.

I am not sure I want to see this just before I go to bed!!!!

It is sure to give me nightmares.........

The subject is bad enough - but the (lack of) fashion sense is horrendous!

Did nobody tell these poor souls that open plaid shirts went out when grunge died???

:shocked:

I once had the misfortune of unwittingly sampling pigs testicles (disguised as quid    when I was in China and I can tell you, a bowl beside the table would have been handy   they fall into a similar category at deep fried ducks tongues and chickens feet  

Balls, brains, kidneys, stomachs, livers, intestines...how can people eat those?
