How do I know if kidneys are fresh?
Variety Meats: Lamb Kidneys
When checking lamb kidneys for freshness, you want them to be pale red or pink. You do not want to prepare kidneys that are already starting to turn purple – or ones that have a strong smell. When checking this meat variety for freshness, you want to see kidneys that do not have any dry or dull spots. The color of the kidneys should be uniform and even. If the kidneys you have purchased do not meet these standards, you should throw them out. They are not fresh.
