Description

Dutch veal osso buco from Holland, ideal for slow cooking in a pot to develop rich, velvety sauces that cling to the tender meat. Prepare it lemonato style with garlic, parsley, and white wine for a bright, fresh acidity that enhances the shank’s marrow depth, or kokkinisto with carrots for a sweet, tomato-based richness.​

The cross-cut shanks with exposed bone marrow benefit from 2–3 hours of low braising at 160–170°C, allowing connective tissues to melt into a silky texture while flavors meld. Add thyme, bay leaves, and pepper during cooking for aromatic layers, with white wine deglazing to elevate complexity and finesse.​

Serve over creamy risotto, polenta, or pasta to soak up the glossy sauce, garnished with extra gremolata of lemon zest, parsley, and garlic for vibrancy.

Tommy's Tips

  • Cut the meat into large pieces for even cooking.​

  • Marinate with red wine and throumbi for intense flavor.​

  • Let it simmer for at least 2-3 hours to become tender and develop a full-bodied sauce

Cooking Tips

  • Slow braise in wine with vegetables for a rich, glossy sauce that melds flavors over low heat.​

  • Cook in a pot with tomatoes, onions, and spices for a hearty, aromatic tomato-based stew.​

  • Ideal served with risotto or polenta to absorb the velvety sauce and complement the tender shank.
