Ossobuco is also known as Osso Buco, which means "bone with a hole" in Italian. The upper part of the beef shank is sawn into "washers" and the cut is a bone with bone marrow, around which the meat is located. Italians prepare the dish by stewing meat and vegetables for a long time. This recipe was taken as a basis by the chef Jamie Oliver. The dish from this ingenious chef has won over more than one gourmet and culinary critic. Let's repeat this culinary masterpiece on our own in the home kitchen!
This elegant dish is made from veal, which, thanks to the long stewing, turns out to be the most tender. As mentioned above, traditionally a piece of meat from the upper thigh of the carcass, along with the bone, is used for the recipe. Of course, it is the bone that gives the dish an amazing taste. But for home cooking, you can use any other piece of veal meat. Although, if you wish, you can ask the butcher to cut the shank into "washers", since not every housewife can chop a bone 5 cm thick at home.
To make this dish, Jamie says that before stewing the meat, it needs to be fried on both sides until golden brown. To do this, you need to keep the steaks from touching each other in the pan. And they should warm up evenly. Let's try to cook this dish.
