Frequently Asked Questions

Can I prepare the mushroom-chili blend in advance?

Yes, sear the meat first, then transfer to a slow cooker with the braising ingredients and cook on low for 8–10 hours.

Can I use only shiitake or oyster mushrooms?

Yes, but using both varieties creates more texture and depth of flavor.

What if I don't have a grill?

You can sear the veal in a cast iron skillet and finish cooking in the oven at 350°F.
