About Veal Loin Chop 225g

We source our veal from specialist producers in the Netherlands and from English rose veal farms in Britain. In particular, we select every supplier for welfare standards, breed and the quality of the finished meat. As a result, the veal we deliver meets a standard set by the finest European butchers and restaurant kitchens. Furthermore, modern veal production bears no resemblance to the practices that gave the ingredient a poor reputation. However, the distinction between production methods matters. In particular, Producers raise Dutch milk-fed veal on a diet of milk and grain in well-managed group housing. Additionally, English rose veal comes from British dairy calves raised outdoors on a natural diet, producing pink meat with a more robust flavour than white veal. That transparency about provenance is something we consider essential. That is why Veal Loin Chop 225g from The Artisan Food Company consistently impresses even the most discerning cooks.

Why Choose Veal Loin Chop 225g From Us

Cooking veal well rewards a light touch above almost everything else. In contrast to beef, veal has a delicate flavour that aggressive seasoning or heavy sauces overwhelm quickly. As a result, the finest veal preparations are always simple. Furthermore, veal responds particularly well to butter, cream, white wine and lemon – the classic Italian and French kitchen combination. However, different cuts demand very different approaches. In particular, the loin, escalope and cutlet suit quick cooking at high heat and brief resting. Moreover, osso bucco, diced veal and tougher cuts transform completely with long, slow braising. Additionally, never serve veal as rare as beef. It benefits from cooking to a pale pink throughout. That gentle heat and light hand define the finest veal cooking.
