What changes the calories
- Cooked veal weighs less than raw veal because it loses water, so the same piece has more calories per gram after cooking.
- Cutting away visible fat lowers the calories, while eating the fat with the lean raises them.
- Pan-frying or sautéing adds the calories of any oil or butter the meat absorbs, and breading adds more.
- Sauces such as cream or marsala sauces, often served with veal, can add a lot of calories on top of the meat.
Tips for logging it accurately
- Weigh your veal after cooking and log it as cooked, so the weight matches the entry.
- Log cooking oil, butter, breading and sauces as separate items, since they are not included in the meat's numbers.
- If you scan your plate with BerryFit's photo meal scanning, check the portion size and add any sauce or oil the photo may not show.
