Orecchiette with Red-Wine Veal Sauce image

Categories     Blender     Food Processor     Beef     Pasta     Tomato     Sauté     Red Wine     Winter     Gourmet

Yield Serves 6 to 8 as a main course

Number Of Ingredients 9

For sauce
2 1/2 pounds veal shanks (osso buco; four 1 3/4-inch-thick pieces)
1/3 cup olive oil
2 large red onions
a 28-to-32 ounce can whole tomatoes including juice
2 cups dry red wine
1/2 teaspoon dried hot red pepper flaked
3 whole cloves
1 1/2 pounds Fresh Semolina Orecchiette or 1 1/4 pounds dried orecchiette

Steps:

  • Make sauce:
  • Pat veal shanks dry and season with salt and pepper. In a deep large heavy skillet heat oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and brown shanks on all sides. Transfer shanks to a plate and in skillet sauté onions, stirring, until golden, about 10 minutes.
  • In a blender or food processor coarsely purée tomatoes with juice and stir into onions with remaining sauce ingredients. Bring mixture to a simmer. Add shanks and cook, covered, over low heat 1 1/2 to 2 hours, or until meat is tender. Discard cloves.
  • Transfer shanks to a cutting board and cool slightly. Simmer sauce, uncovered, stirring occasionally, 15 minutes.
  • Using 2 forks shred meat. With a sharp knife remove marrow from shanks and chop. Stir meat and marrow into sauce and season with salt and pepper. Simmer sauce 15 minutes. Sauce may be made ahead, cooled completely, uncovered, and chilled, covered. 2 days or frozen 1 month.
  • In an 8-quart kettle bring 7 quarts of salted water to a boil. Cook orecchiette until al dente (about 6 minutes for fresh, longer for dried) and drain in a colander. In a large heated bowl immediately toss pasta with sauce.

Tips:

  • Choose the right kidneys: Select veal kidneys that are firm and plump, with no discoloration or bruising.
  • Soak the kidneys: Soaking the kidneys in cold water for at least 30 minutes helps to remove impurities and reduce the strong flavor.
  • Trim the kidneys: Use a sharp knife to remove the white membrane and any excess fat from the kidneys.
  • Slice the kidneys: Slice the kidneys into thin, even slices against the grain.
  • Use a hot pan: When searing the kidneys, use a hot pan to ensure that they get a nice crust.
  • Cook the kidneys quickly: Veal kidneys should be cooked quickly over high heat to prevent them from becoming tough.
  • Use a flavorful sauce: A rich and flavorful sauce can help to enhance the taste of the kidneys.

Conclusion:

Veal kidneys in red wine sauce is a classic French dish that is both delicious and elegant. By following these tips, you can easily create a delicious and memorable meal. Serve the kidneys with mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple green salad. Enjoy!
