The sauce traditionally served with Veal Marsala (Scaloppine di Vitello al Marsala) is very easy to make —
- Marsala wine
- butter
- meat juices
- browned residue left in the pan from cooking the veal, reduced to the consistency of a sauce.
Marsala wine is made in Sicily, and like port and sherry. Brandy or another spirit has been added to boost the alcohol content to 17% to 18%.
- Marsala wines can be sweet, semisweet, or dry, and have been aged anywhere from one year to more than ten years.
- The rich, smoky flavor that characterizes Marsala wines becomes more pronounced as the wine ages, so the taste difference between a young wine and one that has aged for years will be significant.
- However, you’re not likely to have much more of a choice in Marsala wines than just dry or sweet.
Some Veal Marsala recipes ask a sweet Marsala wine, but most of the real Italians specify dry wine.
Veal Marsala recipes Variations
- add mushrooms, which contribute to the dish itself, and their juices contributed to the sauce.
- adding a bit of cream to the sauce, which softens the assertiveness of the wine, but does not steal its flavor
- add lemon juice.
- add chopped parsley.
