FOR THE SWEETBREADS: Soak the sweetbreads in cold water to cover for 6 hours, or overnight, changing the water at least 2 or 3 times.

Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a boil (using a large volume of water will help maintain the boil when the sweetbreads are added). Add the sweetbreads, reduce the heat slightly, and simmer for 2 minutes. Drain the sweetbreads and put them in an ice bath to cool, then drain again.

Remove any excess membrane or fat from the sweetbreads. Place them on a C-fold towel-lined baking sheet and cover with another C-fold towel, another baking sheet, and a light weight. You want the sweetbreads to compress to about 4 inch thick, no more. Refrigerate overnight.

Let the cooking liquid sit for 5 to 6 minutes to allow the fat to rise to the top. Remove the fat, add the sweetbreads to the liquid, and refrigerate until ready to finish the dish, or up to 2 days.

To complete: Remove the sweetbreads from the liquid (reserve it) and dry on C-fold towels. Separate the sweetbreads along the natural breaks into nuggets approximately 25 grams in size.
