Veal pastrami

600 minutes
Veal pastrami is an exquisite dish of European cuisine that embodies tenderness and rich flavor. This method of preparing veal has roots in ancient marinating techniques where meat was aged in fermented dairy products for special softness. Kefir gently penetrates the fibers, filling them with a light tanginess. Slow cooking at low temperatures preserves juiciness and reveals the natural flavor of the veal. The cooled meat is sliced thinly and garnished with a fragrant mix of red onion, pepper, and wine vinegar, creating a harmony of spiciness and freshness. It is served as an independent appetizer or as part of complex gastronomic compositions. This dish is perfect for leisurely dinners where depth of flavor and refinement in preparation are appreciated.
