Veal Cutlets with Thyme Butter SaucePornchai Mittongtare

If you can't find panko, cut the crust off slices of country-style bread, tear the bread into pieces, and grind it coarsely in a processor. Dry the crumbs in a 250°F oven. Do not use store-bought breadcrumbs, which have too fine a texture and give a less crispy result. What to drink: Either a dry rosé from the south of France or a full-bodied, oak-aged Chardonnay would work here.
