    p. 195 - This recipe exceeded our expectations. The grilled veal chops were fabulous but it was those incredible flash-pickled mushrooms that really made this dish special.MB provides instructions on roasting garlic he mentions that the cloves should be soft but not mushy. Well, I missed that part and made my garlic per usual and of course, it is always mushy . . . a paste texture. Needless to say, once the vinegar hit the pan, the garlic dissolved and created a thick sauce. Obviously I realized that wasn’t what Mario intended but I made the best of it and simply loosened it a bit later on w a bit of pasta water. We really enjoyed this gravy-like texture. Everything about this dish appealed. The veal chops were perfectly cooked, tender and delicious. The tangy mushrooms boosted the flavour of the meat and the sweet, nutty flavour of the roasted garlic tied this all together beautifully. I could have eaten the mushrooms and not even missed the meat!! This is a winner!
