For the last 47 years we have been celebrating our anniversary by going
out for a nice dinner. That could not happen this year because of this
pandemic thing,so we had a nice dinner at home. Megatron picked up a
boneless leg of lamb and some nice big scallops for me to cook. The
scallops were simply pan fried. The lamb was cooked in the gas BBQ and
it turned out beautifully.

I'll take the scallops and y'all can chow down on the lamb.

fond of scallops.
Our anniversary is coming up (as my husband reminded me a couple of days
ago), and we're mulling what to do. Perhaps veal parmesan, although I
haven't suggested it yet.

So it doesn't sound nice.

sounds pleasant. I don't curl up and die if there are foods I don't like on
the table. I don't particularly like veal parm, but I know my husband
loves it, so it would be a nice thing to do for him for our anniversary.

Well, Happy Anniversary to Dave and Megatron yesterday.
Also Happy Anniversary to Cindy and husband soon.
My parents were able to celebrate their 67th anniversary
before Dad died about 3 months later.
If I annoy anyone here, you can blame them for that.

We have veal parm often, only since good veal is difficult to find and
is typically way over priced... so I slice cutlets from boneless pork
loin, to date none have noticed the difference... many restaurants do
likewise but charge veal prices. It's been many years since I've seen
any veal at stupidmarkets
Never pound meat to make a CUTlet or it'll cook up dry and tough,
simply slice thin across the grain... easy to do with a sharp carbon
steel knife and a steady hand... stainless steel knives can't be made
sharp. A CUTlet is called a CUTlet because it's not a POUNDlet. Most
celebrity chefs on TV have lousy knife skills so they pound. Pounding
meat does not tenderize, it has just the opposite effect. Swiss steak
is not pounded, it's put through a cubing machine that makes lots of
small cuts accross the grain.

Then you're not having veal parm.

to the butcher so I can get cutlets and pound them into paillards myself.
And, yes, I read your opinion about pounding meat.

So you prefer wasting your money and your knife skills are seriously
lacking.

You can go pound your meat if you can find it.
