About Osso buccho

Osso Bucco is a classic Italian dish originating from the Lombardy region. Traditionally made using braised veal shanks, the name "Osso Bucco" translates to "bone with a hole," referencing the marrow-filled bone at the center of the cut. The shanks are slow-cooked with a mix of vegetables, white wine, and broth, resulting in tender meat and rich, savory flavors. Often served with risotto or polenta, it is topped with gremolata, a zesty mixture of lemon zest, garlic, and parsley. Nutrition-wise, veal provides high-quality protein and essential nutrients like iron and zinc, while the marrow is a source of healthy fats. However, the dish can be calorie-dense due to the fat content and preparation methods. For a lighter version, leaner meats like chicken can be used, or excess fat can be trimmed. Overall, Osso Bucco is a hearty and flavorful meal enjoyed in moderation.
