What is osso buco?
Osso buco · Italian
Veal shanks braised low and slow in wine and stock until falling off the bone, with marrow in the middle.
What it tastes like
Deeply savory, tender meat and a rich, glossy sauce, usually brightened with gremolata. The bone marrow is the buttery bonus.
Where you’ll see it
Italian mains, often over saffron risotto or polenta, and sometimes made with pork or lamb shanks instead.
