Aight, I’m gonna go have Day-Off breakfast at a local diner with my husband, and then I’m gonna come back & finish desecrating this chili

It might take a bit to piece it together. The flavor is very bloody and liver-y, but that birth-bed smell is pretty strong. The human-ness is diminished somewhat by cooking, though, so you might get the placenta part without guessing human.
What's 'amniotic' like?

Kind of protein-sweet, but in the way that your postnasal drip is “sweet” when you’re sick, ie makes you want to gag. Heating it, and removing the amniotic sac + velamentous membrane, seems to temper the sugar-mucus nastiness into a mere offal flavor.

I thought that was vernix, the cheesy stuff? Apparently nipples smell amniotic too, at least to newborns, because of the goop that Montgomery tubercles secrete. But vernix has that new-baby-head smell to it, whereas childbed stank is just... animal.

Probably both? I'm no nurse or midwife, but the amnio smell is what comes to mind when I think of fresh babby because it's way more pungent. I think you're right that the vernix is responsible for that traditional "baby smell" but they've been marinading in amnio for 9 months so I'm sure that's in there too.

And here I thought I missed the thread somehow! Awesome, glad it came out tasty in the end. Kind of makes me want to attempt something similar with beef liver in chili...

I soak chicken livers in milk overnight to pull the acrid piss flavor out, sear them hard, and puree them into chili every time I make it.

Also, I was planning to do a boudin actually, funny that is what you mentioned.

Do you share your placenta eating stories with your lead doctors and coworker nurses?

Yeah, I usually do a milk soak on livers, and I actually meant to do one here, but then I realized that half of the placenta hadn’t drained right and was clotty. Eating fresh chicken livers has taught me better than that poo poo. Clots tend to, like, absorb milk somehow and become incredibly loving disgusting.

Also, yes, I share my placenta adventures with all comers. One of the unit secretaries has been hounding me for weeks to get it done. I even shared my elf dick rant with one of the intensivists.

One of my life goals is that, when I die and they inevitably make the documentary, everyone they interview will just shrug and say, “Well yeah she was really actually like that.”

re: potential placenta sausages, since a placenta used to be a bag that contains a child, but now it is the one contained within a bag. is the casing going to be made of placenta too? if you make sausage rolls out of the placenta sausages, should you also include placenta into the pastry?

Actually, the placenta is part of the baby! It develops from the trophoblast layer of the embryo, which digs into the endometrium like a parasitic plant.

Grats on eating your own baby, OP.

I would not use the membranes attached to the placenta as sausage casing. No joke, they reeked of womb juice. It’s... offputting.

I’ve been fired as a caregiver at least twenty times— people do this for all sorts of reasons, although I can honestly say I’ve never been fired for failing to appreciate the flavor of amniotic membranes.
