Even though [the Bible] is an ancient document, every person in every situation in every society that’s ever existed can find in this book things that endure forever. Here’s a book that never needs another edition. It never needs to be edited, never has to be updated, is never out of date or obsolete. It speaks to us as pointedly and directly as it ever has to anyone in any century since it was written. It’s so pure that it lasts forever.

INSTRUCTIONS

OSSO BUCO
GREMOLADA
How to Prepare the Osso Buco:
~ Preheat the oven to 350 F. - Season the flour with salt and pepper.
Dredge the veal shanks in the mixture and tap off any excess flour. - In a
large Dutch oven, heat the oil and butter until almost smoking. Brown the
shanks on both sides and remove from the pan onto a plate. Add the carrots,
celery, and onions, and saut&eacute; until soft. Add the garlic and
saut&eacute; for one minute. Add the wine and reduce by half. Add the stock
and tomatoes and return the shanks to the pot. Add the bay leaves and
parsley, cover, and bake for about 1 1/2 hours or until the meat is tender.
~ Remove the veal shanks and cover to keep warm. Place the uncovered pot
with the cooking liquid over medium-high heat and reduce until the sauce
coats the back of a wooden spoon. - Season with salt and pepper to taste.
How to Prepare the Gremolada:
Mix together both zests, the garlic, and parsley. Sprinkle over the veal
shanks.
