CHAPTER 3.

VEAL.

Illustration of the parts of a calf, numbered 1 through 9.
1. Leg.
2–3. Kidney roast and small chops.
4. Shoulder.
5. Neck.
6. Breast.
7. Head.
8. Shank Leg.
9. Four Legs.
Preparation of Veal.

Appearance of Good Veal.

It must be of a white color, a fine firm grain and have plenty of fat.

Do not buy very young veal because those calves are as a rule not healthy. Cheap meat is never economical. Veal is quickly prepared because it does not require long boiling. The bouillon is good for invalids because it contains much gluten.
