About Braised oxtail
Braised oxtail is a savory dish deeply rooted in Caribbean, African, and Southern American cuisines, celebrated for its rich and hearty flavor. This dish is made by slow-cooking oxtail, often with a medley of aromatic vegetables like onions, garlic, and carrots, in a flavorful broth seasoned with herbs, spices, and sometimes wine or tomatoes. The braising process tenderizes the meat, making it fall-off-the-bone succulent while infusing the dish with deep, complex tastes. Oxtail is a good source of protein, iron, and collagen, which supports joint and skin health. However, it is also high in fat and cholesterol, so moderation is key for those monitoring heart health. Pairing braised oxtail with whole grains or steamed vegetables can balance its richness while emphasizing its nutritional benefits.
