Rocky Mountain oysters
Rocky Mountain oysters is a term for a dish made of bull, pig or sheep testicles. The organs are often deep-fried after being peeled, coated in flour, pepper and salt, and sometimes pounded flat. This delicacy is most often served as an appetizer〔Linda Stradley, http://www.deependdining.com/2004/09/rocky-mountain-oysters-old-mill-cedar.html〕 with a cocktail sauce dip.
==North America==
It is a well-known novelty dish in parts of the American West and Western Canada where cattle ranching is prevalent and castration of young animals is common ("prairie oysters" is the preferred name in Canada, where they may be served in a demi-glace, not deep-fried).〔http://www.metacafe.com/watch/1479766/testicle_festival_in_calgary_alberta/〕 In Oklahoma and the Texas Panhandle, they are sometimes called calf fries but only if taken from very young animals.〔http://www.westonaprice.org/foodfeatures/rockymtoysters.html〕 In Spain, Argentina and many parts of Mexico they are referred to as "criadillas," and they are colloquially referred to as ''huevos de toro'' (literally, "bull’s eggs"; besides its literal meaning, ''huevos'' is a Spanish slang term for testicles) in Central and South America.〔(Pensando En Los Huevos Del Toro - Eltiempo.Com )〕 Rocky Mountain oysters are sometimes confused with lamb fries or animelles (lamb testicles), which are served in a manner similar to Rocky Mountain oysters. A few other deceptive terms, such as "cowboy caviar", "Montana tendergroins", "dusted nuts", "bull fries" or "swinging beef" may be used.〔(Rocky Mountain Oysters, prairie oysters, Montana tendergroins, cowboy caviar, swinging beef, calf fries )〕
The dish, purportedly cowboy fare,〔(Cowboy Grub, by Richard W. Slatta, proprietor of the Lazy S Ranch: Where cowboys roam the Old West )〕 is most commonly found served at festivals, amongst ranching families, or at certain specialty eating establishments and bars.〔 They are, however, also readily available at some well-known public venues (e.g., at Coors Field during Colorado Rockies baseball games). Eagle, Idaho, claims to have the "World's Largest Rocky Mountain Oyster Feed" during its Eagle Fun Days (now held the 2nd weekend in July).〔(City of Eagle, Idaho )〕
The primary goal of testicle removal is not culinary. Castration in veterinary practice and animal husbandry is common and serves a variety of purposes, including the control of breeding, the growth of skeletal muscle suitable for beef, and temperament alteration.〔(Castration: Not Cutting Will Cut Profits )〕
