Cooking Tips:
• Veal is very lean and delicate and should be cooked more like poultry than beef. Braising keeps veal moist, while roasting at a low temperature also works well. Sautéing, whether in olive oil or butter, enhances both texture and delicate flavor.
• Mild in flavor, veal is one of the most versatile choices for protein. Herbs, vegetables, cream, butter, oils, wines, and stocks all work well in recipes featuring veal.

Tip for choosing a turkey:

Cooking Tips:

• Always use a meat thermometer to check for doneness. Be careful to take the flesh and not the bone temperature.
• Before cooking, always rinse poultry under cold (not hot or warm) water and pat dry.
• When defrosting frozen poultry, allow it to thaw 2-3 days in a pan in your refrigerator.
• Never thaw poultry at room temperature.
• Never stuff poultry the night before and refrigerate.
• Unlike other meat and poultry, game birds should be served immediately rather than resting for 10-15 minutes, as they have less fat and cool off quickly.
• Always truss game birds for roasting, which will reduce their shrinkage and allow them to cook more evenly.
