About Veal, shoulder, arm, separable lean only, cooked, braised
Beef is the meat of cattle (Bos taurus) and one of the most widely eaten red meats in the world, while veal is the pale, tender meat of young calves. Rich, savory, and deeply satisfying, beef ranges from lean cuts to well-marbled steaks whose flecks of fat melt during cooking to deliver flavor and juiciness. It is an excellent source of high-quality complete protein and is especially valued for highly absorbable heme iron, zinc, vitamin B12, and selenium, nutrients important for energy and blood health.
Different cuts suit different methods: tender cuts like ribeye, sirloin, and tenderloin are grilled, pan-seared, or roasted, while tougher cuts like chuck, brisket, and shank turn meltingly tender with slow braising and stewing, and ground beef becomes burgers, meatballs, tacos, and chili. For food safety, ground beef is cooked through, while whole steaks can be served to taste. Store fresh beef cold, use it within a few days, and freeze it for longer keeping.
