7 cloves garlic, 4 whole and 3 smashed and finely chopped
Crushed red pepper
1 1/2 pounds fresh baby spinach
Kosher salt

5 to 8 slices prosciutto
2 large onions, thinly sliced
2 sprigs fresh rosemary, picked and finely chopped
1 cup dry white wine
4 cups chicken stock
2 bay leaves
1 fresh thyme bundle

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Coat a large straight-sided saute pan with olive oil. Smash 2 of the whole garlic cloves with the heel of your hand and toss them into the pan with a pinch of crushed red pepper. Bring the pan to a medium-high heat. When the garlic is golden brown and very aromatic, remove it from the pan and discard it, it has fulfilled its garlic destiny.
  • Add the spinach to the pan, stir to coat the oil and season with salt. Cover the pan and cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the lid from the pan and stir the spinach, it should be wilted. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. Transfer the spinach to a mesh strainer to let any excess water drain out.
  • Return the pan to the burner and coat the pan with olive oil and add in 2 more garlic cloves that have been smashed with the heel of your hand. Repeat the process of cooking the garlic to golden brown and discarding. Toss in a pinch of crushed red pepper and the sliced mushrooms. Season the mushrooms with salt and cook until they are soft and wilted, add a little more oil if they are a little dry. Taste the mushrooms and adjust the seasoning if needed. Remove from the heat and let cool.

  • Uncover the onions, they should be very soft and wilted. Add the chopped garlic and rosemary and cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the wine and reduce by half.
  • Return the veal to the pan and add chicken stock until it comes about halfway up the sides of the veal. Toss in the bay leaves and thyme bundle. Cover and place in the oven and cook for 1 hour.
  • Remove the veal from the oven, turn over and add more stock if the liquid has reduced. Taste the braising liquid if the liquid level has reduced significantly. Cook for 1 hour.
  • Remove the lid from the Dutch oven and braise for another 45 minutes to allow the liquid to reduce.
  • Remove the veal from the oven, remove from the pan, cover with foil and let rest for 15 minutes. Place the Dutch oven on a burner over medium heat to reduce the braising liquid if it is too soupy. Taste the liquid to make sure the seasoning is correct.

Categories     Sauce     Side     Stew     Veal

Yield serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 4

6 1/2 cups/1,625 grams apple cider
1 cup/250 grams prepared horseradish
3 1/2 teaspoons/21 grams fine sea salt
6 pounds/2.7 kilograms bone-in veal breast

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 180°F (80°C).
  • Mix the cider with the horseradish and salt.
  • Wrap the veal breast in a single layer of cheesecloth. Put the veal, bone side up, in a pan large enough to hold the meat and the cider mixture. Pour the cider mixture over the veal and cover the pan with foil. Place in the oven and cook for 19 hours. When the breast is fork-tender, remove the pan from the oven, remove the foil, and allow the veal to cool in the liquid for 1 hour.
  • Put on a pair of disposable rubber gloves. Lift the veal out of the liquid and unwrap it. The meat will still be warm and pliable. Remove any bones and cartilage from the meat. Unfold the veal and carefully clean up the meat, pulling out the rubbery connective tissue. Put the cleaned meat back into a rectangle shape and wrap it in plastic. Refrigerate the meat until you're ready to use it.
  • Preheat the oven to 180°F (80°C).
  • Strain the veal braising liquid into a small saucepan and discard the fat. Warm the liquid over medium-low heat.
  • Cut the breast into slices. Arrange the sliced veal in an ovenproof serving dish and pour the warm braising liquid over it. Place the veal in the oven for 15 to 20 minutes, basting the veal occasionally with the sauce, until it is warmed through. Serve immediately.

Categories     Veal

Time 3h

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 -4 lbs boneless breasts of veal
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 small onion, chopped
2 small carrots, peeled and chopped
2 celery ribs, chopped
2 -3 garlic cloves, peeled and minced
1 cup dry white wine
3 -4 cups chicken stock
1 tablespoon fresh sage, minced
1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, minced
salt
fresh ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Prepare the boneless veal breast by removing and discarding all visible fat. Let the meat come to room temperature.
  • Roll the meat into a roll, tightly turning one edge inside and on top of itself, like a jellyroll. Cut 4 or 5 12-inch lengths of kitchen twine and tie the roll so that it keeps its uniform shape.
  • Season the entire roll with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  • Place a large French oven or braising pan (one that has a cover) over high heat. Add the canola oil and heat for 30 seconds until shimmering.
  • Add the meat and brown on all sides. This will take about 10 minutes. Don't rush this step because the browning adds important flavor to the dish.
  • Remove the meat to a plate and add the carrots, onion, celery and garlic to the pan. Lower the meat to medium and cook until the vegetables soften, about 6 minutes.
  • Pour in the wine. Let it boil, scraping the sides and bottom of the pan to remove all the brown bits.
  • Add 3 cups of chicken stock and bring to a boil, then immediately lower to a simmer. Do not add any more salt or pepper at any point because through the cooking, the flavors will concentrate and the seasoning on the meat before you browned it will probably be enough. You can also adjust for seasonings at the very end of the cooking.
  • Return the meat to the pan. If the meat isn't submerged at least half-way in the stock/wine mixture, add more stock until it is, up to one more cup.
  • Cover the pan and adjust the heat so that the liquid is at a low simmer. Cook for 2 to 2 1/2 hours, turning the meat over at least once half-way through the cooking.
  • When the meat is tender and soft to your touch (press it with the tips of your fingers and make sure that it gives a bit), remove the veal roll from the cooking liquid and place on a plate. Cover with foil to keep it warm.
  • Turn the heat up under the remaining cooking liquid and bring to a boil and cook for 5 to 10 minutes until the liquid has reduced by half. Check to see if it has reached a sauce-like thickness by dipping a teaspoon in the liquid, turn the spoon over and run your finger through the liquid coating the spoon. If it leaves a clear mark, it has probably thickened enough.
  • Strain the liquid through a fine-holed sieve to remove the vegetables. Return the sauce to the pan and add the minced herbs. Taste for seasoning.
  • Slice the meat into 1/2-inch pieces and drizzle the sauce over the slices or else pass the sauce in a separate serving dish.

BRAISED STUFFED BREAST OF VEAL

Categories     dinner, project, roasts, main course

Time 5h

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 head garlic
5 to 6 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Leaves from 2 large bunches white Swiss chard, rinsed and drained
Salt
1/4 pound prosciutto di Parma
1/4 cup freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 whole 10- to 12-pound breast of veal, boned
4 sprigs fresh thyme
2 tablespoons finely chopped flat-leaf parsley
2 carrots, quartered
2 onions, quartered
1 leek, quartered
1 stalk celery, quartered
12 cups liquid: light veal or chicken stock or water, or a blend
Herbed vinaigrette, salsa verde or aioli, optional

Steps:

  • Heat an oven to 450 degrees. Rub the garlic with a little olive oil, wrap in foil and roast until soft, about 30 minutes. Remove the garlic and reduce the oven temperature to 325 degrees.
  • Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in a large saucepan, add the Swiss chard leaves, sprinkle with a little salt, and cook a few minutes, turning with tongs, until wilted. Place in a colander and press out as much liquid as possible.
  • Coarsely chop the Swiss chard. Shred the prosciutto and scatter over the chard. Dust with the cheese and chop ingredients together until the chard is finely chopped. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Use a sharp knife to remove excess fat from the surface of the veal. With boned side up, lightly score surface of veal in crisscross pattern. Season with salt and pepper. Squeeze the garlic out of cloves and mash. Spread on the meat. Spread with an even layer of chard mixture. Strew with the thyme and parsley. Tightly roll the slab of veal the long way. Use a butcher's cord to tie the veal at 1 1/2-inch intervals, tucking in any stuffing that oozes out.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons oil in large, deep casserole over medium heat. Cut the roast in half or thirds if necessary to fit in the casserole, and lightly brown on all sides, one section at a time. If the pan blackens, wash the casserole after browning the veal.
  • Scatter carrots, onions, leek and celery over the veal in the casserole. Add enough liquid to nearly cover the meat. Bring to simmer on top of stove. Place in the oven and cook 2 1/2 to 3 hours, basting frequently, until the meat is fork-tender. Remove from the oven and allow to cool in liquid to room temperature.
  • Remove veal from cooking liquid, reserving liquid. Wrap veal in foil; refrigerate overnight.
  • Reduce cooking liquid by half and skim off fat. Strain and freeze for another use.
  • To serve, snip and remove cord from veal. Slice veal. Arrange on platter with vinaigrette, salsa verde or aioli alongside.
