Well, lamb´s testicles were - and still are - very popular, usually boiled,
then preserved in fermented whey (sýra), as I´ve told you about. There are
references to bull´s testicles being treated in the same manner but no
recipe as such - not that I can recall. When I was a child several lamb´s
testicles were usually stuffed inside a pouch sewn from a portion of the
stomach before being boiled and if calves were being slaughtered at the same
time, I´m sure their testicles were included also.

P.S. The testicles are rather good, if you have a taste for whey-preserved
Icelandic food. I have no idea what others would think of the stuff.
