About Veal stock
Veal stock is a savoury liquid made by simmering veal bones, often with meat and aromatic vegetables, in water. It is used as a cooking liquid or as a base for soups, sauces and braises. Its appearance ranges from pale to deep brown, depending on whether the bones were roasted and how the stock was prepared.
When chilled, stock with substantial extracted gelatin may set to a soft gel; otherwise it remains fluid. Its flavour is meaty and savoury, with strength and seasoning varying by recipe. It is sold or prepared as liquid stock, and also in concentrated or dried forms; these forms are not interchangeable without adjusting for dilution and added ingredients.
