This is one for those who want something
different from the classic ossobuco
milanese. The sauce is based on red wine
and veal stock, with the addition of
aromatics. The basic sauce is finished off
with cream and red balsamic vinegar.

Preparing the ingredients. Cut the onions into
slices. Peel the carrots and celery stalks and
chop them coarsely. Crush a few garlic cloves.
Preparation. Sauté the onions in a few
tablespoons of olive oil. After a minute, add the
mix of carrots, celery and garlic. Spoon the
vegetables into a deep casserole.
Dust the meat with flour, season with pepper
and salt and sear it on both sides in some olive
oil. Put it with the vegetables.
Fill the pot further with brown veal stock and a
glass of red Italian wine, type Chianti. The meat
should be completely submerged. Add a few
cloves, half an Italian pepper and a few
tablespoons of tomato concentrate. And also a
bouquet garni made with bay leaves, parsley
stalks and sage. Season with pepper and salt.
Let the preparation simmer for an hour and a
half over a low heat, until the shanks are fully
cooked. Remove them from the sauce and put
them away, covered.
Finishing off. Remove the cloves and the
bouquet garni from the sauce. Put the
immersion blender in the pot and purée. Push
the sauce through a sieve into a clean
saucepan. Put the pot on the fire and add a jar
of cream and a glass of red aceto balsamico di
Modena. Reduce to a thick sauce or thicken
with maize starch dissolved in water.
On the plate. A shank topped with sauce.
Finish with chopped parsley. Serve with a side
dish of your choice.
