Veal breast looks awfully fatty

[VAfoodie]

I'm cooking one right now, but I'm honestly wonder what I'm going to eat from it. I'm not a fan of short ribs for the same reason. Any tips for reducing the fat?

Veal calves are not allowed to move around because then they would develop muscle...

It's probably too late for this meal, but next time you are dealing with a veal breast, trim it well. Also, if you cook either veal breast, short ribs or any other fatty cut, cook it the day before you plan to eat it. Refrigerate and let the fat congeal on top for easy removal.

What did you do with your veal breast? The last one I made was absolutely delicious and it was a several day-long project.

agreed, veal breast are indeed very fatty. Easy to trim and the are also easy to split to form a pocket for stuffing.

I stuffed it. There seemed to me to be very little meat to eat; it was all fat with meat marbling? Next time, I'll buy a boneless one.
