About Vitel Toné

The famous and classic homemade Vitel Toné that we like to eat every December so much, and that every year we wonder why we do not eat it more often, if it is great! His name is the exclusive heritage of Italy, where it is known as vittelo tonnato of the Piedmont region, the translation is something like "ternera to tuna" and is usually presented in 2 versions: cold and hot.

A curiosity: in the European tradition it is not a festive dish and, on the contrary, they prepare it in summer. And at this point we all ask ourselves, why do you eat at Christmas Argentina? One of the reasons for its success is because it represents a meal within all easy to prepare, but not so simple, preparing it entails its dedication.

It is a cold meal and in Argentina for Christmas it is hot, of course our palate loved it. In addition to that it is a classic that honors the traditions of our ancestors. In Italy it is no longer so common, it is more, it is considered an ancient preparation and by the cold Christmas climate it is not a very chosen option for these dates.

Vitel Toné Salsa Secrets

  • Vitel Toné can also be prepared with veal language.
  • You have to cook at low temperature . This will depend on the size of the chosen piece, but the ideal is to use about 160 ° -170 °.
  • The vegetables are very important and if you put them next to the meat during cooking it is the best way to cook them. Once cooked, they are liquefied along with tuna, capers, parsley and a cooked egg. You use this as a dressing.
  • How is Vitel Toné meat cut? In slices half a centimeter thick.
  • For baked cooking, it should be wrapped in aluminum foil with a branch of rosemary, salt, pepper, a clove of garlic and olive oil.
  • Try putting a few drops of cognac in the sauce and they will not regret it.

Vitel Toné recipe

Ingredients for 1 peceto

  • 1 peceto of 1.5kg. approx.
  • 2 glasses of white wine
  • 1 meat bald (look here how to make homemade broth cubes )
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 tuna can
  • 2 hard egg yolks
  • 2 tbsp. olive
  • 3-4 Anchovies
  • 1 CDA. of vinegar
  • Half -lemon juice
  • 1 CDA. of mustard
  • 2-3 CDAs. of mayonnaise
  • 1 CDA. of capers + extra capers to decorate

How to do Vitel Toné to have in the refrigerator and not stop

  1. Marinate the peceto in the 2 glasses of wine all night. You can saute this step but I recommend doing it so that the meat is well spongy and much tastier. I'm already throwing a secret and we just started.
  2. After this time, bridge the peceto (tie it, to keep its round shape). Another step that you can skip and that I recommend doing so that the peceto better retains its juices and shape.
  3. Boil it in the broth for 1 hour in common pot or 40 minutes in pressure pot (I used the cooker press ). Also cool in the broth.
  4. Meanwhile, put in the blender 1 large bucket of the broth in which the peceto was made along with the 2 hard egg yolks, the tuna, the anchovies, the 2 tbsp. of olive oil, the CDA. of vinegar, lemon juice, mustard, mayonnaise and cda. of capers. Lique all ingredients until you get a fine cream.
  5. Cut the peceto. I like the finite, as finite as possible. But if you prefer a toné vitel with thicker meat you can modify it to your liking.
  6. Accommodate in a fountain and bathe with tuna and anchovy sauce. Throw (yes, I said throw), more capers above. Devour and be happy.

By the way, on this website there is another recipe by Vitel Toné, Sophia Loren's authentic recipe, which does not carry mayonnaise or mustard.

For me, milk cream does not work, the sauce is cut, since the cream releases a serum and leaves a cut appearance

The laurel is to boil the pesceto. I also added all aromatic grass that I found at home to make it tastier and the wine to the broth ... Then I tell you

1st time I add broth to the sauce, I didn't like it. Very liquid for my liking. The rest of great ingredients in the taste.

Good afternoon! I just finished your recipe, and it is not my desire to detract from it, but I have followed all the indications and adjusted the ingredients and the sauce has been excessively acidic and liquid. I think that vinegar, lemon and mustard should be placed with counts. It is a pity that such a good (and face) meat has been ruined with the sauce. If I prepare it again, it will be almost without acids. It is not a criticism of the recipe, but it has not been as the memory of when my mother prepared it. Anyway, there will be those who like it. Thanks and happy holidays!

First time I do it, super rich! Let's see… isolated by Covid Bow and inside the house and in the middle of the Quilombo I had to fix. Instead of Pescetto, I did it with a pig carré (boneless) that I had in the refrigerator. I didn't have to macerate it. To the sauce I added another yolk to make it more creamy. As I had no capers put black olives. It is not the classic, it will not be the Italian, but it came out richly! That the base is the broth and not cream or mayonnaise makes it much lighter and more digestible. Our grateful livers.

I did it and it was very tasteful but the meat came out a bit, it will have something to cook or depends a lot on what is the flesh?
