Step cooking

  1. My kidneys are well washed and we cut out everything unnecessary - white tissues, ducts, etc. The kidneys have a rather unpleasant odor. Therefore, the first thing to do is get rid of it and eliminate all the waste products that could remain in this body. To do this, pour clean kidneys with cold running water for four hours. Every hour, water needs to be changed. You will notice that part of the unpleasant odor is already gone.
