Lesso e Pearà

Lesso e pearà is a typical Veronese dish that is often prepared for holidays and similar festive events in the region. It consists of boiled meat paired with pearà (lit. peppery) sauce. The sauce is made with broth, beef marrow, butter, bread crumbs, and a hefty amount of pepper. The choice of meat is selected according to personal preferences, but the dish is most commonly prepared with beef which should be slowly boiled in a traditional terracotta pot for the most authentic experience.
