VEAL SCALLOPS WITH CREAMY MUSHROOM SAUCE
John Schumacher bought the historic but deteriorating Broz Hotel, 50 miles southwest of Minneapolis, back in 1974. After renovating the building, he reopened it as a European-style hotel and restaurant. Schumachers' is now on the National Register of Historic Places. John's wife, Kathleen, runs the front of the popular restaurant, and John is the chef. His specialties are central European fare - like this veal sauté.

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients. The better the ingredients, the tastier the dish will be. Look for fresh, organic ingredients whenever possible.
- Pound the veal cutlets thin. This will help them cook evenly and quickly. You can use a meat mallet or a rolling pin to do this.
- Don't overcrowd the pan. If you add too many cutlets to the pan at once, they will not cook evenly. Cook them in batches if necessary.
- Cook the veal cutlets over medium-high heat. This will help them sear quickly and develop a nice crust.
- Don't overcook the veal cutlets. They should be cooked through, but still slightly pink in the center. Overcooked veal is tough and chewy.
- Make the saffron cream sauce while the veal cutlets are cooking. This will save you time and ensure that the sauce is hot and ready to serve when the veal is done.
- Serve the veal scaloppini with your favorite sides. Some good options include mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple salad.
Conclusion:
Veal scaloppini with saffron cream sauce is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. It is also relatively easy to make, so it is a great option for home cooks of all skill levels. With a few simple tips, you can easily create a restaurant-quality meal in your own kitchen.
