Testicles on the menu in nutty cookbook

"a Serbian chef is bringing out a no-holds-barred guide to cuisine with a twist: The Testicle Cookbook: Cooking With Balls.

Hailed as the world's first testicle recipe collection by e-book publishers YUDU, the cookbook includes author Ljubomir Erovic's favourite dishes, like testicle pizza, battered testicles and and barbecued testicles and giblets.

The e-book, available for download from the internet, comes with handy video guides showing the Serb peeling the skin off testicles and slicing them up into bite-size chunks.

Several different animals, including stallions, ostriches, bulls, pigs and turkeys, get the Erovic treatment.

"Wash testicles thoroughly for 30-45 minutes," begins the recipe for testicles pie.

"Once softened, mince them in a mincer."

Of course, this story sent me scurrying to Google, someone must have a testicle cookbook... nope, this does seem to be the first. The Testicle Festival in Montana seems to have missed out on a bet here.

This is not to say they did not appear in other cookbooks however.

SCA period recipe: "Boil four bull's testicles together with salt. Cut into slices and sprinkle with salt, pepper, nutmeg and cinnamon. Then, in a pie crust, place layers of sliced testicles alternated with mince of lamb's kidneys, ham, marjoram, cloves and thyme." Bartolomeo Scappi, chef to Pope Pius V, 1570.

I wonder if the Penis Museum in Reyjavik Iceland would carry the cookbook?

Call me closed-minded, but I find both possible interpretations of the phrase "battered testicles" unpleasant.
