About Veal meat
Veal meat is meat from a young bovine, sold in cuts for roasting, braising, grilling, frying and other cooking methods. It is generally pale pink to light red when raw, with a mild flavor and a texture that varies by cut and preparation.
The term covers many cuts, from lean portions to pieces with more fat, bone or connective tissue. It may be sold fresh or frozen and can be ground or otherwise processed; those forms differ in texture and are not nutritionally identical.
