Steps:

• In 9" pie pan stir together flour, 1/4 cup of Parmesan cheese, 1/4 tsp.
• salt and pepper.
• Dip cutlets in eggs; lightly coat both sides of cutlets with flour mixture.
• In 10" skillet, melt butter over medium heat until sizzling; stir in 2 tsp.
• lemon juice.
• Place 3 cutlets in melted butter and lemon juice; fry until browned (3 min. on each side).
• Remove cutlets to serving platter; keep warm.
• Repeat with remaining cutlets.
• In same skillet with drippings and brown particles, stir in whipping cream.
• Add remaining ingredients, except parsley.
• Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until sauce is slightly thickened and artichokes are heated through (4 to 6 min.).
• Stir in parsley.
• Serve over cutlets.

VEAL STEW WITH SAUTEED ARTICHOKES

Steps:

• In a heavy casserole, soften the shallots in the oil and butter. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.
• Lightly dredge the veal pieces with flour. Brown a few pieces at a time in the casserole on all sides, turning with tongs. Set the browned pieces aside in a bowl.
• When the meat has browned, add the white wine and scrape up cooking juices. Return meat to the pan, along with the sage, shallots, salt and pepper. Cover and simmer gently for 1 hour, stirring occasionally and adding a little water if the meat gets dry.
• Meanwhile, trim the tops (cutting off about two-thirds of an inch) and stalks from the artichokes. Remove tough outer leaves. Slice the artichokes vertically in quarter-inch pieces. Place them in a large bowl filled with water and the lemon juice, to stop them from turning brown.
• Heat the olive and safflower oils in a large skillet. Saute the artichokes until browned and keep them warm. Add the garlic to the skillet and cook just enough to change color and sprinkle it over the top of the artichokes.
• Just before serving the stew, sprinkle the artichokes over the top.

VEAL STEW WITH ARTICHOKE HEARTS, FAVA BEANS, AND PEAS

Steps:

• Prepare sachet d'epice Place the aromatics on a large piece of cheesecloth, gather the edges to enclose, and tie with kitchen twine.
• Blanch favas Prepare an ice-water bath in a large bowl for shocking the beans (which stops the cooking and preserves their color). Drop the fava beans into a large pot of boiling salted water until bright green and just tender, about 2 minutes. Lift out the peas with a slotted spoon (or a spider) and plunge into the ice-water bath. Once they are thoroughly cool, drain and peel off the tough outer skins.
• Cook veal and artichokes Pour the wine into a large saucepan and bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 1 minute (to cook off some of the alcohol). Add veal, water, and 1 teaspoon salt. Bring to a boil and skim the foam from the surface with a slotted spoon (veal produces more surface foam than other meats, so this step is important). Add herb sachet and reduce heat to a low simmer. Cook, uncovered, 1 hour, skimming the surface frequently. Add artichokes to the pot, submerging them partially in the liquid. Cook until the artichokes and veal are tender when pierced with the tip of a sharp knife, 20 to 30 minutes more, adding peas during last 3 minutes of cooking. Remove the sachet and squeeze out the liquid into the pot. Then strain the contents of the pot through a fine sieve into a bowl or large measuring cup, reserving veal, artichokes, and peas. You should have about 3 cups liquid.
• Thicken sauce Wipe out the pot and return it to the stove. First, make a roux by melting the butter over medium heat until foamy, swirling the pan to melt evenly, then whisk in the flour and cook, whisking constantly, 1 minute. Next, make a velouté by whisking the reserved liquid into the roux and bringing to a boil (again, always whisking), cooking until the mixture is smooth. (Classic culinary teaching would have you whisk cold stock into a hot roux, or vice versa, to prevent the sauce from forming lumps, but that isn't necessary as long as you whisk diligently.) Reduce heat and simmer 10 minutes.
• Make liaison (optional) Whisk together the egg yolk, if using, and heavy cream, then temper by gradually whisking in a cup of the velouté (this will allow the egg to gently heat so it doesn't curdle). Now whisk everything back into the pot and cook over gentle heat until the sauce thickens enough to coat the back of the spoon, 1 to 2 minutes. (If you prefer, omit the egg and whisk the cream directly into the velouté in the pan.)
• Serve Return the veal, artichokes, and peas to the pot along with the peeled favas and cook gently to heat through, stirring. Season with salt and pepper. Add lemon juice and chopped dill or parsley to taste.
• Ingredients
• This stew is best made in spring when all the ingredients are in season, but in a pinch, substitute frozen peas, fava beans, and even artichoke hearts, adding all at the end, just to heat through.
• BLANQUETTE DE VEAU
• Omit fava beans, peas, and artichokes. Once the veal has cooked for 1 hour and 20 minutes, melt 2 tablespoons unsalted butter in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add 8 ounces small white button mushrooms and 6 ounces blanched and peeled pearl onions (page 31), tossing to combine. Pour in 1/4 cup stock from the stew and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are cooked through and the stock has reduced to a syrupy glaze, about 9 minutes. Finish with the liaison, then return veal to the pot along with the vegetables.

SWISS-STYLE VEAL AND MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Stir the stock, soup, thyme, veal, mushrooms and green onions in a 3 1/2-quart slow cooker. Cover and cook on LOW for 7 to 8 hours or until the veal is fork-tender.
• Stir the flour and water in a small bowl until the mixture is smooth. Stir the flour mixture in the cooker. Turn the heat to HIGH. Cover and cook for 5 minutes or until the mixture boils and thickens.
• Stir in the cheese. Serve over the noodles. Season with the black pepper.

VEAL WITH ARTICHOKE, BLACK OLIVE AND MUSHROOM SAUTE

Steps:

• Heat 1 teaspoon of the olive oil in a medium-size skillet over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and cook until tender. Add the artichoke hearts and cook until heated through. Stir in the black olives and season with salt and pepper. Keep warm.
• Heat the remaining 1/2 teaspoon olive oil in a large, nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Season the veal with salt and pepper and lightly coat with flour on both sides. Working in batches as necessary, saute the veal until lightly browned and just cooked through, about 1 minute per side. Divide the veal among 4 plates. Top with the artichoke mixture and serve immediately.

ROSEMARY AND GARLIC VEAL CHOPS WITH GRILLED MUSHROOM RELISH AND GRILLED ARTICHOKES

Steps:

• Veal Chops: Combine oil, rosemary, garlic and zest in a large shallow baking dish. Add the veal chops and turn to coat. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator at least 4 hours or up to 8 hours. Preheat grill. Remove chops from marinade and season with salt and pepper to taste. Grill chops, turning once until the centers are slightly pink, (registers 150 internal temperature), about 15 to 17 minutes.
• Mushrooms: Brush mushrooms and onions with olive oil and season with salt and pepper to taste. Grill each for 10 to 15 minutes, turning occasionally until just cooked through. Remove from the grill and cut into 1/2-inch pieces. Place in a bowl with the tomatoes, thyme. Drizzle in the vinegar and oil, mix well and season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Braised and Grilled Artichokes: Place the olive oil, vinegar, wine, and garlic in a large saute pan and place on the side burner of the grill and bring to a simmer. Drain the artichokes and add, cut side down in a single layer in the pan. Bring the mixture to a boil, reduce the heat and cover the pan. Cook until barely tender, about 12 minutes. Remove the artichokes from the pan, season with salt and pepper and grill for 4 to 5 minutes until lightly golden brown on both sides.

LEMON VEAL, WITH ARTICHOKE HEARTS

Steps:

• Trim the veal into one-and-a-half-inch cubes. Dredge lightly with flour.
• Heat the oil and butter in a large casserole about 12 inches in diameter. Brown the veal pieces. Add the onion and one garlic clove, minced, thyme, one-half cup chicken stock and white wine. Cover and simmer for 45 minutes.
• Add the carrots and artichoke hearts and cook until almost tender. If necessary at this point add more stock. Add the mushrooms and cook 15 minutes more.
• In a small bowl beat the egg yolk. Crush the remaining clove of garlic with a mortar and pestle, adding a little salt. Add the egg yolk and beat with a fork. Pour in lemon juice and mix thoroughly. Ladle a spoonful of the cooking juices from the casserole into the egg mixture. Mix well. Add the mixture to the casserole and cook over very low heat for a minute, stirring. Do not overheat or the mixture will curdle.
• Remove from heat, sprinkle with parsley and serve.
