About Veal osso bucco

Veal Osso Bucco is a classic Italian dish from the Lombardy region, renowned for its rich, comforting flavors. The star ingredient is veal shank, cut crosswise to include the bone, which is traditionally braised with vegetables, white wine, and broth. Aromatic ingredients like garlic, onions, and herbs enhance its depth, while a bright gremolata topping made of parsley, garlic, and lemon zest adds a fresh finish. Veal is a lean protein source, rich in essential amino acids, vitamins like B12, and minerals such as zinc and iron. However, the preparation often includes butter or oil and may be high in sodium due to the broth, which can be a concern for those monitoring heart health or salt intake. Pairing it with nutritious sides like steamed vegetables or whole grains can help balance the dish for a wholesome meal.
