Osso Buco alla Milanese
Osso Buco alla Milanese is a traditional Italian dish originating from Milan. It features braised veal shanks, cooked slowly with vegetables, white wine, and broth until tender. The name "osso buco" translates to "bone with a hole," referring to the marrow-filled bone at the center of the shank.
Typically served with a gremolata—a mixture of lemon zest, garlic, and parsley—this dish is often accompanied by risotto or polenta. The rich flavors and tender meat make it a beloved comfort food, showcasing the culinary heritage of northern Italy.
