First, students learned about veal production through a \u201cvirtual tour\u201d of Provitello Farm in Elba, NY, facilitated by NYBC. Students were walked through the stages of the veal lifecycle and saw examples firsthand of how veal raisers take care of the calves. Topics discussed during the tour included facility design, disease prevention, calf nutrition and health management. The new industry-wide group housing standards and Veal Quality Assurance program were also discussed.<\/span><br \/><br \/><span style=\"font-family: Arial; font-size: small;\">The second phase of the competition took place at the students\u2019 school kitchens. Teams of two to four students were challenged to work together to develop a consumer-friendly veal recipe using ground veal or veal cutlets. The recipe was to be designed to make four servings with a price point not exceeding $35. After developing and testing their recipe, students were also asked to put together marketing material including photos of the completed dish and a \u201chands and pans\u201d-style video that could be used to teach a consumer how to complete the dish.
