Hope everyone’s okay.

[@paulc9643]

A short story: The skies darkened as the giant disk descended from the sky above the Empire State Building. From outside his window, sirens sound and people scream as they run for cover. Still Jamie eats. But all that doesn't matter. God's butter lulls him into a trance of sweet nectar and orange zest. God's butter hypnotizes him to the point where even the heat of a million fires that lick the towering buildings couldn't break him from his reverie. "What the hell is going on out there," he exclaims between bites. But that doesn't matter. All that matters is the Osso Bucco and the universe of umami.

Osso bucco is absolutely delicious. I have made Julia’s and other versions. I usually finish mine with a traditional gremolata of parsley, garlic and lemon or orange and serve it over creamy polenta. The polenta is really nice with the sauce. Some people think the marrow is gross but it is really great. And yes, it is now very expensive to make. Back in the day veal shanks weren’t as expensive as they are now. You can make a “cheaper”version with beef shanks or even pork shanks. Bon appetit!

[@ronschlorff7089]

Now a days, at least in the run-away inflationary USA, a "cheaper version" of all foods may be found in certain restaurants. Bet there are some very nice family-owned Italian places, near Jamie in, NYC! ;D

Yes, veal is delicious, but the way veal is raised (in narrow cages such that they can't turn around) and slaughtered (it sometimes happen that the animal is skinned alive) makes eating veal an immoral act.

We ate this a lot at home growing up (Julia's recipe of course), but we used beef shank and it was just as good. Roasted potatoes, a green veggie (because mom insisted we always eat veggies), and a crusty bread (that is what you put the marrow on). This is one of my favs..

[@nataliajimenez1870]

Yeah, just substituting veal for beef shanks and the veal broth for a good quality beef broth (it's easy to make it at home using a pressure cooker and beef bones from a butcher) reduces the price significantly. Latin supermarkets sell beef shanks at a good price (it's called chamorro de res in Spanish).

Years ago an Italian American friend made this for me and his wife. It was the best thing I've ever eaten but I've never tried to duplicate it. A few years ago I ran across a recipe using beef shanks, marsala and tarragon. Wow!! Delicious but best for winter because I bake it in a low oven for 5-6 hours! I need to try Julia's recipe especially now that I know shanks are tasty.

[@jeannetteagnello1100]

Beef shanks is what we use too. The veal is simple too pricy.

[@Getpojke]

It's one of the most joyous dishes to eat isn't it!? I remember hearing the name of it years before I ever got a chance to cook & eat it. I was having friends around for dinner & thought I'd give it a go. Everyone was lively & chatty during the first course. I brought the Osso Buco out to the table to serve up & there were some Oh's & Ah's. That first bite, butter soft unctuous flesh, the slippery coating mouthfeel of the escaped marrow... I got lost in it. Then I realised that the table was totally silent, everyone lost in their own little reverie, savouring those first bites. I'd served it with a bed of creamy butter bean mash & mushrooms, with a side of small toast triangles for the bone marrow if people wished. There was little talking through that course, everyone was totally absorbed in the plate in front of them. sometimes silence is a good thing at a dinner table, sometimes. That was one of them. Oh I want to cook it again, thanks for bringing it up & great video. At the end, the cacophony of sirens in the background & your peaceful absorbed demeanour caring only for the taste of the dish really sums up how good it is.

The "h" in herbs can be silent or pronounced, depends on the variety of English. In American English it is generally silent, but in British English it is usually pronounced, so herbs most definitely has an "h". Many American speakers also pronounce the "h", so, no, you weren't and are not pronouncing it wrong. All the other people who commented otherwise were just ignorant

[@d.r.7396]

Also, it was initially silent in British English too. Max from the channel Tasting History talks about it in one of his episodes.

[@cbjones2212]

Fun fact. British english used to be the same as American english until Queen Victoria went down the French pronunciation road and added the letter 'u' to words like neighbour and colour, and swapped the 'e' and the 'r' in words like theatre and centre. She did this because her beloved hubby, Prince Albert, had trouble pronouncing certain words without the French influence. Voila!!

I remember coming home from school, walking into the house and that smell would hit me. I knew we'd be eating osso buco for dinner. Oh what joy! Mom would prepare risotto Milanese with saffron and the marrow while the shanks were braising in the oven. Dad would open a good bottle of wine. Absolutely must have gremolata, lemon zest, chopped garlic and parsley, sprinkled over the top. Perfection on a plate. Back then veal shanks were fairly cheap as few Americans cooked them. Perhaps my very favorite meal.

I've made Osso Bucco for more than thirty years. Obviously my favorite dish. Your version (Julia's) is excellent. There are so many variations as to how to cook this dish - this version uses more lemon zest than I would normally use, but that is an essential ingredient. I have never used fresh tomatoes as you do, but I'm sure this would work well. I've never used veal stock (difficult to find or make) but chicken stock and/or beef stock or a combination of both works well.

Been about a year since I made this dish, and it's one of my best. Italian comfort food. Make sure to have good garlic bread to slather that bone marrow over! And forget the veal, just get beef shanks. You can even do this dish with oxtail. I also add celery, and the last half hour I add quartered potatoes, mushrooms, and larger carrot chunks. I usually let this cook for 3 1/2 hrs total, so with prep time it's one of those cold winter weekend meals that cook all day...

[@leephillips2837]

looks delicious. When you make this again, keep some of the uncooked citrus and parsley chopped together with some pine nuts to serve on the top (a gremolata). The freshness will cut the fatty richness and create an awesome contrast.

I'm not proud. I can have it whenever I want. Twice a day if I like. Sometimes I add rice, beans, or pasta. The dogs get the bones. Everybody is hap, hap, happy. This is food for the commoner as well.

[@kikihammond5326]

Jamie, I know you may never see this comment, but something that helps with dredging is put the flour on waxed paper. When you are finished with dredging, you just enclose the remaining flour in the waxed paper and toss in the trash. It makes clean up much easier and you waste less flour. Just put a coating of the flour on your paper about the size of the pieces you are dredging. If you run out of flour, use a spoon and spoon out some more flour. You can also use the paper to line a bowl if you find that easier. Anything to make clean up easier is great. This way you don't end up with wet blobs of bloody flour stuck to bowls or your cutting board. Those are so hard to clean up as they set like concrete.

Ossobucco is so amazing. ❤️ I had the same reaction when I made it first years ago.

Once you train yourself to use it cooking becomes so much easier. It's one of their most used kitchen tools.

[@hunterjohnson7393]

Super happy seeing how you've progressed, getting your mise en place before turning on the stove (your production quality is much better, too). None of what follows is meant to be a criticism: Regarding pepper: There are four seasonings: salt, sweet, bitter, and sour. Umami is a 5th, but in any case, these five enhance flavor; everything else CHANGES the taste. So everyone (incl. Julia) back in the day said "season with salt and pepper", while salt is a flavor enhancer (if you don't salt, it won't taste right, from Thomas Keller) but pepper changes the flavor. If you don't pepper, then it's simply not peppery. Unless you want your Osso Bucco to taste like pepper, don't use it. Carrots and onions: you can always add a bit of water to cool the pan. It will evaporate and not change the flavor; once the onions burn, they'll be bitter (covering the pan was confusing to me). Regarding pronouncing French words, the only consonants at the end of words that are pronounced are the ones in "careful": C R F and L. So the "d" in fond is not pronounced ("fohn"). "Check seasonings" means get a spoon and taste first--during braising, some of the liquid will evaporate, making it more salty. It's best to be stingy with the salt at the beginning, and adjust (add more) at the end. FINALLY, I'd invest in a really good Thermopen instant thermometer. Yes, 1-1/4 hour sounds about right at 350 F (I'd try longer at 275 F--all cooking is time and temperature, and if you want it like butter, slow and low is the way to go) but I suspect veal is fully done at 125 or 130 F in any case. After your video on the bifteck hache I was inspired to follow in your footsteps. Thanks for the great videos; I guess I know what's for dinner this weekend!

Go with Beef or Lamb shanks next time. Just as good I think because Julia's sauce is a mix of tangy richness, umami from the tomato flesh. Someone below suggested anchovy paste, or anchovy sauce. I'd definitely go there as the "iconic" Pinwheel Lasagna From the Don Angie restaurant recipe uses fish sauce to kick up its Italian Sausage + Veal Bolognese component. Julia's turn with the orange peel is a shout out to Gremolata, which would be a nice condiment to go with it. Served with polenta, or gnocchi, it would be a real winter warmer from Northern Italy.

[@sourdoughhome2571]

This video brings back memories. The BEST Ossobuco I've had was in a sushi restaurant, Keiichi in Denton, TX. The owner is a master sushi chef but when he came to America he had to take a job in an Italian restaurant as sushi was as yet not a thing in the USA. He found he liked Italian food. He has said Italian and Japanese food are very similar - they are simple cuisines based on fresh, quality, ingredients. His ossobuco is to die for - as are most of his creations.

Nice dish and pretty straight forward to cook once you have the ingredients. Yes, the cost, the cost, the freaking cost of food, and everyfreakingthing. I'd get this now, and make it before the costs go up, cuz there is only one way but up now. I'd even go to a restaurant instead; it's getting that close to home cooking costs. Also, some variations on this theme I'll mention at the end. Veal is always expensive, but there are other meats that will work almost as well. The marrow is the thing with shanks, if you don't need that then there is another choice. The sauce looks easy enough, and the tomatoes can be canned, but those looked nice. As for Anthony I guess he is talking to God about the marrow now too! Chuck steak or roast is cheap and can be braised like this in the same sauce or cooked slow in the crock pot for a close mimic to this dish, everything else being the same. And instead of whatever he paid for the veal; you are looking at maybe one fifth the price per pound. Good food for a cold day, not that cold here, but will be in the winter. : )

[@TheLazyDutchGardener]

Its so fun to watch you wolf it down after making it, seeing how much you enjoy the dish! ☺️

[@avisitorhere]

Tip: don't brown your meat in a non stick pan, you can not develop a fond that way, since the sugars don't stick to the pan. Use a stainless steel pan for this. Also adding water to the pan you are browning in, helps release the meats juices which helps develop the fond on the pan. Americas Test Kitchen has a good tutorial on that process. Browning meat has everything to do with the sauce at the end and very little to do with the final flavor of the meat itself. You're making sauce not meat.

[@3llevate]

Ohh I never knew it was for the sauce exclusively

[@matty6247]

I do like the blue diamond non-stick pans as used in the video, but you are spot on. The fond is key for sauce.

[@chasethelights]

Great tip, but a word of caution for anyone making Ossobuco--the shanks are NOT steaks, they're dredged for a reason and shouldn't be treated like a steak in that you don't want that same type of crust. The ossobuco browns even more near the end of it's time in the oven, and if you make the crust too hard it'll make the texture of the meat somewhat stringy on the outside once it's fully braised for 3 hours.

Oddly us Brits pronouncing the H in the loan word [from the French] herbs started relatively recently in the 18th/19th century. It was a class thing [as always with us] as some accents that were perceived as "lower class" like cockney routinely dropped the "H" at the beginning of words.

[@juliabobin446]

@@annemarieanderson4824 *ahem* am Australian...can confirm we also pronounce the 'h'. It's not just Brits. 😂

I appreciate you sharing this recipe. I once had every one of her cookbooks in my collection of books. Due to life's circumstances, I had to gift 90% of my book collection to Goodwill.

It isn’t the cut of the cow that’s so expensive, it’s the fact that it’s veal…which is little baby cows. Which is why I don’t eat veal..

[@artbylesleymilne]

The "h" in herbs is NOT silent! Aaaaaaaaarghhhhh! Im enjoying your channel, thanks for the laughs 😁

[@BCSpecht89]

Beautiful! Well done. Osso bucco is one of my favorite braised meat dishes, right along with braised beef short ribs. Both started out as humble fare because the cuts of meat were cheap back in the day. Not any more. Kudos for trying "God's butter".

[@cleanfreak2005]

Love the Anthony Bourdain reference... I remember him saying that bone barrow was the dish that chiefs ordered after service was through and that it was the meal that he wanted to be his last.

[@Puddor]

osso bucco with super buttery mash is literally my favourite dish. ooouuggh I could go for some right now.

[@jamescampbell2190]

I made this for my very best friend in the world for his birthday a few years back. I did not invite anyone else to dinner that year. (Not so much the expense, just too greedy to share…) When he took the first bite, his eyes popped open just like yours did!

[@robertkatz8093]

I've made osso bucco twice, and it is a great dish. I don't remember where I got my recipe from, but it was pretty much identical to this one, except I used red wine, not white. Also, at least two restaurants in my neighborhood use pork shanks instead of veal. They taste pretty much the same and they're a lot cheaper.

[@lornehargis2614]

Osso Buco is one of my all time favorites. Have made it only once, it was great. Will have to do it again

[@WatchTashi]

One of my favorites. Best thing I’ve ever cooked in my life, by far.

[@PoppySeed47]

I love that you say this show because it is!!! Your show is awsum!! 😘

[@roccosisto8196]

Loved watching this. A little trick to remembering the pronunciation of herbs is that we pronounce the H when we are talking about a person and not when we talk about the seasoning. Also basil is pronounced “baysil” when we talk about the plant and “bahsil” when when we address the person, as in Basil Rathbone. Don’t get caught up in the affectation of trying to emulate the BRITs.

[@BigHenFor]

As he lived in London it's not an affectation. It just American English vs British English. He's back home, and has to revert to American English. Such is life.

[@roccosisto8196]

@@BigHenFor Yes, it’s an affectation for Americans in that they try to copy the Brits.

[@ranger2316]

Excellent! I thogoughly enjoyed your light hearted approach to cooking. I am going to try this!

[@fredsmith3001]

I love this dish. I'm eager to try this version. The lemon and orange zest and vermouth sound like nice tweaks. I would strain the braising liquid prior to reducing it. The carrots, etc. have turned to mush and given up all their flavor. Straining these out results in a beautiful, silky sauce..

[@mariaestrellahernandezcamp8448]

And one of the most simple dishes I have seen in the show!!

[@mrkattm]

I have watched a few of your videos and I must say you have very good skills and surprisingly good techniques. I find it hard to believe that you have never has any of these dishes that I have seen you cook, how can this be ? Is it an act? How can you be so clueless yet so competent ?

[@samsomerville6054]

I adore Julia Childs and Osso Bucco is one of my favourite dishes, I think you did both of them justice ❤

[@delialee6320]

What an absolute fresh of breath air you are 😂😂 I like the way you present/cook, a yummy recipe from Julia made easy by you. More videos from you 👍🏻👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 and thanks.

[@thepsyentwist8452]

imo the most delicious dish I've ever eaten . I expected to enjoy it but I was blown away by how ridiculously delicious it was.

[@davidstevens8122]

I am so glad that I subscibed to Anti-Chef. It took me a while, well, several videos, to grasp that you were yelling "Order up!" I thought that you were speaking Portuguese or something exotic.

[@MoeMoeKyun206]

Jaime, just a tip from another home cook who used to have burnt fingers a lot: Carry a dish towel tucked into the front pocket of your apron, half hanging out. You can use it as a hotpan holder when you have to move pans around, and if it's big enough it can protect both hands. Love the show, btw, keep on keeping on!

[@coleasbill4576]

Had Osso buco in Florence, Italy the day i before i proposed to my wife. That meal was truly magic on a plate and i recommend it to anyone. Go to Florence and eat at small family restaurant 2 blocks down from the Hotel Cardinal in the center of town, people who go will not regret it. I recommend Florence for more than the food but that meal was possibly the highlight of my gastro-journey while i traveled in Europe.

[@gillieography]

BC of this channel, I just found a local farm that sells high quality grass fed beef (I’m in a rural area). So I went to pick up my first goodie box and mentioned this video bc that’s what got me searching for better local meat and specifically beef shanks…anyway he gave me 2 FREE beef shanks (not a fan of veal) and I’m making this recipe TOMORROW!!! Thanks for the inspo Jamie!!

[@gillieography]

Just put it in the oven!! I cannot wait to try this!!

[@user-cf9es3br7z]

Jamie, thanks again for a great video and for sharing your experiences with Julia.

[@ronschlorff7089]

Nice to see this episode originally with Julia herself, in 60's, she loved it and said it was a "less expensive" cut of meat, can't imagine what that would translate into, but not what Jamie paid today!

[@theodorecalcaterra1240]

@@ronschlorff7089 Shank meet used to be inexpensive. It used to be called the Butcher's cut.

[@Hollis_has_questions]

I had the Italian version once, with the gremolata sprinkled on as you like it. I think I would like JC”s version more, with the citrus peels cooked right in with all the other ingredients. But yeah, it’s some of the best food that money can buy, and it’s not very difficult to make - no Silver Fox or Morty or liquidizer or food processor or immersion blender or any other fancy appliance; not even too much butter or oil! Those veal shanks were A#1, and I think the shanks and the veal stock made all the difference. When it comes to pricey ingredients, this is a case where you put your mouth where the money is. ❤

I have a version (very similar to Julia's recipe) which is done in a slow cooker. I normally hate osso bucco but this way is amazing.

[@cathycorley9412]

I tried Osso Bucco because of the way it was described on the menu. It was beyond the description. There is only one place that sells veal shank near me...about a 40 min drive and I can't afford it. I have made it with beef shank and with the same flavor profiles it is very good also. Another one to consider...here a southern favorite...at local soul food establishments...is oxtails. I imagine they could be cooked in a similar way and are very meaty and fall off the bone as well. I'm glad you enjoyed it!! YUM

[@bensonrichard561]

I love how the city is burning down and you're just in pure bliss with your osso bucco! What a vibe lol

[@nyxqd1290]

Your reaction was the same one I had the first time I ever made this. I picked up some veal shanks on impulse from my local butcher when I was there for something else, found a good Italian recipe, and set to work. I paired it with my recipe for goat cheese polenta and some gremolata and oh my god, it blew my mind. I adore osso buco and now I want to make it again. 😂
