A Grand Welcome To Placenta Chef

Welcome to the culmination of our efforts here at Placenta Test Kitchens. Since our conception decades ago (though it feels like just last week) we have developed recipes for the culinary world's overlooked star: the placenta. Much like our star the sun; closest to earth but never seen as part of a larger constellation. Meanwhile other ignoble foodstuffs, like the truffle (a mere ground fungus), have catapulted their way into kitchens across the world.


Please remember that we at PTK have access to the most choice, fresh and seasonal placenta and it is the taste and excellence we hope to reflect through Placenta Chef. It is important to use purely human afterbirth and no substitutes. While the placenta is an integral part of all mammal birthing, some stores may try to pass off cow, pig or even mouse placenta for use in your kitchen. These will leave a bad aftertaste in ones mouth and are highly suspect for genetic modification while containing antibiotic residue used to promote growth during a cruel and inhumane factory farming process. If your local grocer or monger hasn't what you need please contact your Local Board of Midwifery (their motto is "think global, eat local" for a reason).

We plan to release recipes listed below on a monthly basis. Between recipe releases we will update our little community on nutritional data, to current events, historical information as well as ephemera that should come our way. Please enjoy this site as we open the possibilities together.

Yours in culinary fraternity,
Placenta Chef
