I found this recipe from 2003 on the Food & Wine website. I was looking for other veal stew recipes when I couldn’t find all the spring greens for the Veal Stew with Spring Greens in the May 2010 issue. I found this, and since the rosemary in my herb pot was so delicious I went for it. And it was phenomenal, I actually made it about a month ago. Yes, it was pretty hot for a stew, but I had the veal and stew just called out to me. And, as always, I halved the amounts for Adam and myself, but I’ve posted the whole recipe below. Halving stews is tough.
