HYBRID
9/10
Cross-cut veal shanks braised in white wine and broth, finished with gremolata, served with risotto alla milanese.
Why It Works
The marrow inside the bone melts into the braising liquid, creating an unctuous sauce. Low, slow braising converts tough collagen into gelatin, making the meat spoonable.
Key Ingredients
veal shanks
white wine
onion
carrot

broth
