"Osso Buco is prepared from the bottom portion of either the front or rear leg. As Osso Buco comes from a muscle used constantly for movement, it contains a high amount of connective tissue. This tissue breaks down when prepared using slow moist cooking methods such as casseroling and braising imparting a rich, full bodied flavour and a delicious gelatinous texture." Enjoy!! |
