Widely consumed in France and Italy, veal is tender and has a delicate flavour. Veal can be prepared as a roast, blanquette, stir-fry, sauce or cutlet depending on the cut. Veal is an essential ingredient in many traditional dishes, such as blanquette de veau in France and osso buco in Italy. Choose farm-raised meat with a red label or a farm product. Veal meat can be eaten cooked, but raw versions are also available, such as carpaccios. Please take it out of the refrigerator at least 30 minutes before cooking. Veal can be cooked quickly or slowly. Cutlets, tenderloin, prime rib and grenadine are the best choices for grilling or pan-frying.

Today, I’m lucky to be able to obtain the best produce from ‘O ...
What kind of wine should you serve at a BBQ? With the weather (hopefully) on our side, there are few things better than a barbecue in the sunshine accompanied by a delicious glass of wine. Choosing a good bottle for your barbecue can really elevate the occasion, although for something a little less formal, there’s plenty to choose from in terms of canned or bag-in-box wines instead. Forget those days of washing down a burnt burger with warm Chardonnay or a ‘cooked’ red served in a plastic ...
