I completely agree. Thing is, Lin and I have lamb and asparagus fairly
frequently this time of year, but we hardly ever have veal, so the veal
makes it a "special" meal. (Besides, I wrote about killing the fatted calf
recently, and it made me want to have veal!)

MAKING fresh ricotta? Where do you get the whey? Or are you talking about a
curdled-milk cheese like paneer?
