Breast Of Veal Baked

Rub a well-trimmed breast of veal with melted butter, season highly with salt and pepper, and brown quickly in a hot oven. Pour over two cupfuls of canned tomatoes and bake until the veal is well done. Serve with the tomatoes as a garnish for the meat.

Veal Loaf

Chop fine three pounds of raw veal. Mix with three eggs beaten with three tablespoonfuls of cream or milk, four crackers rolled and sifted, and pepper, salt, and sage to season highly. Shape into a loaf and bake, covered in a little water, basting frequently with melted butter. Serve either hot or cold.

Braised Knuckle Of Veal

Have a three-pound knuckle of veal larded and brown it in pork fat, seasoning with salt and pepper. Add stock to moisten and one cupful of partially cooked lima beans. Cook for forty-five minutes, and serve very hot.

Veal In Casserole

Have lean veal cut into convenient pieces. Put into a buttered casserole and cover with milk. Add a teaspoonful or more of finely chopped parsley, cover, and simmer very slowly until done. It must not boil. Thicken with a little flour cooked in butter, season to taste, and serve.

Jellied Veal

Cover a knuckle of veal with cold water, bring to the boil, and simmer for two hours, skimming as needed. Add a slice of onion, a blade of mace, a dozen cloves, half a dozen peppercorns, a pinch of allspice, and half a nutmeg grated. When the meat falls from the bones, take out the bones, shred the meat, and reduce the liquid by rapid boiling until there is barely enough to cover the meat. Wet a mould with cold water, put in the meat, add to the liquid the juice of a lemon and salt and pepper to season, and pour over the meat. Let stand overnight and serve cold.

Koenigsberger Klops

Chop together three-quarters of a pound of veal and one-quarter pound of fresh pork. Soak three slices of stale bread in cold water, wring dry, and add to the meat. Add salt, pepper, and minced parsley to season. Shape into small balls, cover with cold water, bring to the boil, and simmer gently for half an hour. Strain the cooking liquor and reduce by rapid boiling to a pint. Cook together one tablespoonful each of butter and flour, add the cooking liquid, and cook until thick, stirring constantly. Take from the fire, add the yolks of two eggs well-beaten and two tablespoon-fuls of capers with a little of the caper vinegar. Pour over the klops and serve.

Veal And Oyster Pie

Cut into small pieces one pound of the neck of veal, cover with cold water, and cook slowly for an hour. Add two or three slices of salt pork cut into dice, a chopped onion, a tablespoonful of minced parsley, and salt and pepper to taste. Make a cupful of Cream Sauce in a separate pan, pour into the veal, and cook for twenty minutes longer. Pour into a baking-dish, cover the top with a layer of raw oysters, dredge with salt and pepper, cover with pastry, and bake for half an hour. Serve either hot or cold.

Veal Croquettes
