Osso Buco is a traditional Italian dish originating from Lombardy, known for its rich flavors and hearty composition. The name translates to "bone with a hole," highlighting the star ingredient: cross-cut veal shanks braised to tender perfection. Typically cooked with white wine, broth, and aromatic vegetables like carrot, celery, and onion, Osso Buco is often served alongside risotto or polenta. Nutritionally, this dish provides a good source of protein from the veal, along with essential vitamins and minerals, such as iron and zinc. The slow-cooking process draws flavor from the bone marrow, offering healthy fats and collagen. However, its calorie count can be high, especially if served with buttery sides or enriched with excessive oils. Moderation and pairing with fresh vegetables can help balance its nutritional profile, making Osso Buco a flavorful but indulgent centerpiece for a meal.
