Hi,

Ossobuco is a top dish from Italian cuisine. You do not have to travel to Italy to enjoy a delicious 'ossobuco alla Milanese' again. With these tips and recipe, you simply get the southern flavors to your kitchen. And that with our own Belgian veal. WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT OSSOBUCO Ossobuco alla Milanese ... you guessed it. This stylish Italian classic is originally from Milan. The basis of ossobuco are veal shanks. The shanks are prepared with, among other things, carrots, onions and celery, usually in a tomato sauce.
