Last updated
Osso buco ("bone with a hole") is a classic Milanese dish of braised veal shanks in a rich tomato-based sauce. The bone marrow adds incredible richness, while gremolata (lemon, garlic, parsley) provides brightness. Sous vide ensures fall-off-the-bone tender meat with perfect sauce consistency.
