VEAL. 99 CHAPTER XI. VEAL. GOOD veal is known by the flesh being a 'pinkish color and the fat white. Veal is much less nutri- tious than beef or mutton, and when taken from too young an animal is apt to be very unwholesome, and will in many cases provoke stomach disturbances. Veal and lamb are not improved by long hanging, and want to be served soon after killing and dressing. Veal is divided into fore and hind quarters. The fore-quarter is subdivided into neck, breast and shoulder; the hind-quarter into loin, leg and knuckle. Cutlets, fillets and cushion are cut from the thick part of leg. Veal is found in best condition during the spring, but is in the market all the year. Veal must be thoroughly cooked and well seasoned, as the meat is deficient in flavor, but is much richer in gelatine. Its heat-producing qualities are small, and for this reason it wants to be served with rice, potatoes, jelly, etc., these supplying the elements lacking in the veal. Veal is sometimes kept until five or six weeks old, and fed on milk and all the different vegetables until the fall, when it is killed and served same as beef, and is very nice. Roast Cushion of Veal.
