    Classics mistake with this dish. An Italian housewife would laugh her ass off at this.
    You cook this in one deep dish and in Northern Italy they use one pan and 1 wooden spoon to cook this dish.. The dish goes back to a time when that's probably all the cooking utensils they had.
    2. Rough cut your vegs.
    3. Brown the shanks, veal, pork, lamb or beef. (Note the dish is not about the meat. It's about the bone marrow, the sauce and the bread for dipping.)
    3. Remove the shanks, add the onions, carrots, celery heat thru and then sprinkle with flour. Cook until the flour begins to clump and add your liquid. Can use the wine, beef stock or veg stock or a mixture. bring to a boil. Add sun dried tomato's or paste. Turn the heat down and add the shank. Almost cover with liquid and cook for at least 2 hours on a very low heat.
    4. Remove the shanks and drain the sauce. Throw the veg's away or feed them to you chickens. Who want's to eat veg's cooked for an hour and half or two. Not me.
    6. Now add back in a fresh set of carrots, onion, celery, (potato's optional, there not traditional). Cook until veg's are done.
    7. Serve with a light salad, good country or sour dough bread and a glass of red wine.

    Great for a dinner party. There won't be any left over. And it's very cheap if done with anything but veal. And because it's cooked for so long the lamb has a distinct taste. But the veal, pork and beef all taste the same.

    Jamie, I know you may never see this comment, but something that helps with dredging is put the flour on waxed paper. When you are finished with dredging, you just enclose the remaining flour in the waxed paper and toss in the trash. It makes clean up much easier and you waste less flour. Just put a coating of the flour on your paper about the size of the pieces you are dredging. If you run out of flour, use a spoon and spoon out some more flour. You can also use the paper to line a bowl if you find that easier. Anything to make clean up easier is great. This way you don't end up with wet blobs of bloody flour stuck to bowls or your cutting board. Those are so hard to clean up as they set like concrete.

    Сестра вышла за муж за итальянца. Однажды я попросил ее поделиться рецептом чего-нибудь вкусного на праздничный стол. Это был оссобуко. И я приготовил это блюдо впервые. Это божественно!

    Wow, the comments on others comments! Reading comments,came to double down on manxkin who recommended gremolata, saw the number of comments (29?) and thought ohhh, other gremolata fiends, let’s look. No. A mini mine field of shite talking! Ousso bucco is an amazing dish. I make it without that much citrus peel, just a peel of lemon (will have to try that way btw), served on mashed potatoes with gremolata. Amazing.

    In Colombia Ossobuco is actually "poor people" meat. It's very cheap here. My mom cooks it a lot and it's absolutely amazing. I'm glad it's not very mainstream here yet.

    AHHHHH wipe down your board and knife between cutting ingredients!!! Also, add fresh herbs 10-15 minutes before the dish is done. Any herbs except for hard herbs like rosemary, thyme, and sage are so soft and bruise easily that cooking them for lengthy periods of time just cook off their flavors and leave them bitter tasting. Add them at the end.

    Hey Jamie, Julia calls for vermouth do much because the quality of wine in the US was so bad at the time. She used French vermouth. You can really use any dry white wine.

    To all H haters (yes- as you see it´s pronounced) The proper way IS pronounced (see English because of England), and then you have the wrong ways of spelling – or keep it "pronounce it like in USA"… "Hard to trust a cook that can´t pronounce herbs…" – Alabama Brian…

    Jaime, just a tip from another home cook who used to have burnt fingers a lot: Carry a dish towel tucked into the front pocket of your apron, half hanging out. You can use it as a hotpan holder when you have to move pans around, and if it's big enough it can protect both hands.

    Love the show, btw, keep on keeping on!

    Dude there’s Oso Buco, and then there’s everything else. I couldn’t wait to see your reaction, was the same as mine the first time I had it. Lol because an arm and a leg but it’s worth it! By the way, there is no correct way to pronounce the word HERB. It depends where you are from and perhaps where you are going. If anyone ever corrects you, it gives you an insight to their character.

    One of my favourite dishes! I've made it a few times and the recipe I used called for some depuis lentils to be added to the sauce. There must have been quite a bit more cooking liquid because the lentils would soak a lot of it up. They are tiny lentils and mostly just melt away making the sauce thicker and more sort of stew-ish? Anyway, delicious!
