STORAGE ADVICE
To maintain the freshness and quality of Veal Fillet, it is recommended to store it in the refrigerator at a temperature of 32°F to 40°F (0°C to 4°C). Place the fillet in its original packaging or transfer it to an airtight container or resealable plastic bag to prevent any cross-contamination or exposure to odors. Properly stored, the Veal Fillet can be refrigerated for up to 2-3 days. If you wish to extend its shelf life, you can also freeze the fillet. Wrap it tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil and place it in a freezer-safe container or bag. Frozen Veal Fillet can maintain its quality for approximately 3-4 months. Remember to thaw frozen fillets in the refrigerator before cooking for the best results.

Here’s cooking instruction for Veal Fillet:

1. Preparing the Veal Fillet:
• Start by trimming any excess fat or sinew from the veal fillet.
• Season the fillet with salt and pepper, or any other desired seasonings.
2. Searing the Fillet:
• Heat a skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat and add a small amount of cooking oil.
• Once the pan is hot, carefully place the veal fillet in the pan.
• Sear the fillet for about 2-3 minutes on each side until it develops a golden-brown crust.
3. Cooking the Fillet:
• Reduce the heat to medium and continue cooking the veal fillet for an additional 4-5 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of the fillet.
• Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. For medium-rare, the temperature should read around 135°F (57°C). Adjust the cooking time if you prefer a different level of doneness.
4. Resting and Serving:
• Once the veal fillet reaches the desired doneness, remove it from the heat and let it rest for a few minutes.
• Resting allows the juices to redistribute within the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful fillet.
• After resting, slice the veal fillet against the grain into thin slices.
• Serve the veal fillet with your choice of sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a salad.

Remember, cooking times may vary depending on the thickness of the veal fillet and your desired level of doneness. It’s always recommended to use a meat thermometer to ensure the meat is cooked to your preference. Enjoy your meal!
