Meat
Shoulder
Shoulder of Veal is hard-working muscle for slow roast, braise, and mince. Deep flavour on game; cube for stew. Cook veal shoulder to temperature when thickness varies, rest before carving, and add fat or sauce if lean. Escalopes, osso buco, chops, and roasts show the cut’s strengths. Match heat to collagen—fast sear for tender muscle, long moist heat for hard-working joints.
