Tête de veau

Tête de veau (calf's head) is a classic French dish, also popular in Belgium, Germany, Switzerland, and Italy. 

It consists of the head of a calf (often with tongue, cheeks, and sometimes brains), which is gently cooked/poached for hours in a broth with vegetables, herbs, and spices. 

The head is often deboned, rolled up, and then served. 

The texture is tender meat with a gelatinous skin. 

It is usually served hot or cold with a sauce ravigote or sauce gribiche (egg sauce with capers, gherkins, herbs, and mustard). 

Side dishes often include potatoes, carrots, or salad. 

It is a traditional, no-nonsense dish from the bistro kitchen, sometimes controversial due to its appearance, but beloved by lovers of offal (organ meat). 

In the Netherlands/Belgium (especially Limburg), there are also variations with minced veal and poulet. 

In short: a hearty, traditional delicacy that requires a lot of cooking time!
