Sweetbreads are a delicacy with wonderful food values, coming from the throat of a young milk fed animal, mainly a calf. Sweetbreads are very dainty and do not keep well. Unless you plan to use immediately, precook them, cool, and place in the refrigerator, use in a day or two. Photo by: blogs.phoenixnewtimes.com
