**Osso buco**, a classic Italian dish, is a delectable combination of tender braised veal shanks, aromatic vegetables, and a rich, flavorful broth. This hearty and comforting dish is often served over risotto or polenta, making it a perfect meal for a special occasion or a cozy dinner at home.

Our carefully curated collection of osso buco recipes offers a variety of options to suit your taste and preferences. From traditional Milanese osso buco to modern interpretations with unique twists, we have something for every palate.

1. **Traditional Milanese Osso Buco:**
- This classic recipe stays true to the authentic Italian roots of osso buco. Veal shanks are lovingly browned and then braised in a flavorful broth made with white wine, tomatoes, and a medley of vegetables. The result is fall-off-the-bone tender meat and a rich, savory sauce.

2. **Osso Buco with Gremolata:**
- This variation adds a vibrant burst of freshness to the traditional dish. A zesty gremolata, made with parsley, lemon zest, and garlic, is sprinkled on top of the cooked osso buco, adding a bright and herbaceous flavor that perfectly complements the richness of the meat and sauce.

3. **Osso Buco in Red Wine:**
- For a more robust and intense flavor, this recipe uses red wine instead of white. The red wine adds a deep, complex flavor to the broth, while the braising process infuses the meat with a tender and succulent texture.

4. **Slow Cooker Osso Buco:**
- For those who prefer a hands-off approach, this slow cooker recipe is a lifesaver. Simply brown the veal shanks, add them to the slow cooker with the remaining ingredients, and let it cook on low for several hours. The result is a tender and flavorful osso buco without all the hassle.

5. **Osso Buco with Mushrooms:**
- This recipe adds a savory and umami-rich twist to the classic dish. Mushrooms are sautéed and added to the osso buco during the braising process, infusing the broth and meat with their earthy flavor.

Time 7h35m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 veal shanks, cut in 3-inch pieces (see directions)
3 tablespoons flour
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup butter
1/2 cup port wine
2 tablespoons chopped parsley
1 garlic clove, minced
1 lemon, zest of, grated
3 anchovies (do not omit)
salt and pepper
1 cup bouillon or 1 cup broth
hot cooked noodles or rice, to serve 4 to 6 persons

Steps:

  • In this area you generally find veal shanks cut in slices approximately 1-1/2 inches thick. About 9 of these slices will fit in a 4-quart crockery cooker.
  • Dredge these shank slices in flour. Heat 1 tablespoon each of oil and butter in a skillet and brown a few shanks at a time on all sides; do not crowd slices. Add additional oil and butter as needed throughout browning process. Do not omit this step of browning the shanks -- this develops a much better flavor for the osso buco dish.
  • Remove shanks to crock pot as browning is completed. When all shanks are browned, pour remaining ingredients into the skillet and stir to blend and to loosen the browned bits that remain.
  • Pour this mixture over the meat. Cover and cook 7 to 8 hours at LOW heat.
  • Remove shanks from liquid, and, if the sauce is too thin, boil to reduce it. Or thicken it with a little roux (butter and flour mixed together). The anchovies will have melted into the sauce.
  • Serve shanks on a bed of hot cooked noodles or rice topped with the sauce.

A beautiful, tender and mouth-watering meat casserole, so full of flavor. It forms a juicy and delightfully tasty gravy with carrots, celery and onion. Delicious served with boiled rice or couscous. My family couldn't get enough of this and were fighting to book the left-over bit for their lunch the next day. A real success.
