Veal is a very fine and delicate meat. It should be prepared simply
to enhance its flavour without masking its taste.
The herbs and spices that best complement milk-fed veal are sage, tarragon, basil, rosemary, marjoram, thyme, oregano, chervil, parsley, mustard, fresh ground pepper … not to mention garlic!
Honey, maple syrup, apple juice, cognac, wine, or beer also add a delightful aroma to veal.
Citrus fruits and berries such as oranges, lemons and raspberries, add great colour to veal. Fresh or dried fruits, like apples, figs, prunes, grapes, walnuts and almonds impart an exotic flavour to your recipes.
Veal is also delicious prepared with mushrooms, eggplant, spinach, onion, cream and cheese.
