Notes
1. Osso Buco are thick steaks cut from veal shanks. The thicker, the better, as if they are too thin, they will cook to “fall apart” too quickly without developing enough flavour. This recipe can also be made with beef but note that beef flavour is stronger than veal. Veal has the some red colour as beef but it has a more delicate flavour.
2. Osso Buco is traditionally served with saffron rissoto, Risotto Milanese. Here’s how to make it: If using saffron threads (expensive!), place 2 pinches in a bowl and add 2 tbsp hot water, set aside for 15 minutes. Or, use ¼ tsp Saffron powder. Add the Saffron when you add the broth following this Chicken and Mushroom Risotto recipe, but skip the chicken and mushrooms.
3. Nutrition per serving, Osso Buco only. I was unable to find a reliable nutrition information for veal shanks (because of the bone, I think) so I used 1 kg / 2 lb of beef chuck which I think is a fair substitution, possibly even more conservative from a fat perspective.
