Celebrity chef Rob Feenie shares his recipe for braised osso buco that will warm the heart (and belly) of even the biggest scrooge
For the best-tasting osso bucco, make sure to choose veal hind shanks
Traditionally, osso bucco is made with veal shanks cut from the top of the thigh, which has a higher proportion of meat to bone. The shank is then cross-cut into sections about two inches thick.
Make sure the butcher gives you good-quality hind shanks, which are meatier than the fore ones.
The caper and olive jus goes just beautifully with this meat. Serve it with risotto or soft polenta.
