Steps:
- Dust the veal shanks lightly with flour. Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium to medium-high heat. Add the veal, and cook until browned on the outside. Remove to a bowl, and keep warm. Add two cloves of crushed garlic and onion to the skillet; cook and stir until onion is tender. Return the veal to the pan and mix in the carrot and wine. Simmer for 10 minutes.
- Pour in the tomatoes and beef stock, and season with salt and pepper. Cover, and simmer over low heat for 1 1/2 hours, basting the veal every 15 minutes or so. The meat should be tender, but not falling off the bone.
- In a small bowl, mix together the parsley, 1 clove of garlic and lemon zest. Sprinkle the gremolata over the veal just before serving.

Steps:
- Place the rosemary, thyme, bay leaf and cloves into cheesecloth and secure with twine. This will be your bouquet garni.
- For the veal shanks, pat dry with paper towels to remove any excess moisture. Veal shanks will brown better when they are dry. Secure the meat to the bone with the kitchen twine. Season each shank with salt and freshly ground pepper. Dredge the shanks in flour, shaking off excess.
- In a large Dutch oven pot, heat vegetable oil until smoking. Add tied veal shanks to the hot pan and brown all sides, about 3 minutes per side. Remove browned shanks and reserve.
- In the same pot, add the onion, carrot and celery. Season with salt at this point to help draw out the moisture from the vegetables. Saute until soft and translucent, about 8 minutes. Add the tomato paste and mix well. Return browned shanks to the pan and add the white wine and reduce liquid by half, about 5 minutes. Add the bouquet garni and 2 cups of the chicken stock and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover pan and simmer for about 1 1/2 hours or until the meat is falling off the bone. Check every 15 minutes, turning shanks and adding more chicken stock as necessary. The level of cooking liquid should always be about 3/4 the way up the shank.
- Carefully remove the cooked shanks from the pot and place in decorative serving platter. Cut off the kitchen twine and discard.
- Remove and discard bouquet garni from the pot.
- Pour all the juices and sauce from the pot over the shanks. Garnish with chopped parsley and lemon zest.

OSSO BUCO
Veal shanks braised in tomatoes & wine until tender and falling off the bone. This is a hearty Italian recipe that seems to please everyone. It is good served with any starch. Rice, potatoes, polenta, pasta or crusty rolls. I have done this with plain steamed rice, but last night served it with Risotto Milanese which is Risotto w parmesan cheese and saffron. Very tasty. Osso Buco means "hollow bones" in Italian and is served all over Italy, but purportedly comes from Milan.

Steps:
- Heat one ounce of the butter in a large Texas skillet or Dutch oven.
- Add peeled & finely chopped carrot, onion, celery and one of the crushed garlic cloves. Cook gently until onions are golden brown. Remove from heat & transfer to a large ovenproof casserole.
- Coat shanks in flour seasoned with salt & pepper. Heat remaining butter & oil in large frying pan. Add shanks and brown on all sides.
- Carefully pack shanks on top of vegetables in casserole; stand shanks upright to retain marrow in the bones.
- If pan is oily drain excess oil off. Add tomatoes and chop into pan with wooden spoon until the tomatoes are all popped. You could also start with chopped tomatoes or you can puree them. I just find the flavor better with the whole tomatoes and enjoy the tomato chunks with the rest of the veggies and the meat. Deglaze the pan by scraping the goodies up off the bottom of the pan into the tomato juices with a wooden spoon. Add wine, beef broth, basil, thyme, oregano, bay leaf & strip of lemon rind. Taste. Add salt & pepper to taste if necessary.
- Pour sauce over veal shanks & veg in casserole. Bake in moderate (350°F) oven for 2 hours, or until meat is falling away from bones. (Stir occasionally during cooking.)
- Serve over rice, pasta, potatoes or polenta.
- Quickly blend the chopped parsley, grated lemon rind & other crushed garlic clove and serve separately as a fresh, crisp garnish.

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will greatly impact the flavor of your osso buco. Look for high-quality beef shanks, a good dry white wine, and a flavorful broth.
- Brown the meat well: Browning the meat adds flavor and color to the dish. Be sure to brown the meat in batches so that it doesn't overcrowd the pan and steam.
- Don't be afraid to use a variety of vegetables: Osso buco is a great dish to use up leftover vegetables. Feel free to add any vegetables that you like, such as carrots, celery, onions, leeks, and fennel.
- Let the dish simmer for a long time: Osso buco is a slow-cooked dish that benefits from long, slow simmering. This allows the flavors to develop and the meat to become fall-off-the-bone tender.
- Serve with a flavorful sauce: Osso buco is traditionally served with a flavorful sauce made from the braising liquid. This sauce can be thickened with a roux or cornstarch, and it can be flavored with herbs, spices, and vegetables.
Conclusion:
Osso buco is a hearty and flavorful dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a cozy family meal. By following these tips, you can make a delicious osso buco that everyone will love.
