Oh so (almost) buco

Hi gang - I picked up a couple of beef shank slices on sale: knew I needed to braise them, didn't know how close to making ossobuco I was. Other than they weren't veal shanks, and I didn't make a gremolata, and I'm sure I glossed a few other details... What I did do was start with some thinning-s from the carrot bed



the rest of the line up - nice way to use up the garlic culls



I'm using our CI chicken skillet on the Warrior. Browning the beef



sweating the veggies



and everybody in. New additions: fresh thyme, red wine and mushroom stock



about an hour latter I added all the fresh mushrooms I had and some zucchini



an hour later: plattered



and plated over polenta Cindy made.



I've been liking the CI braises I've been doing lately: the flavors, the heat control - not so much the hue. Still melt in your mouth good!

A short video clip, for those inclined. Thanks for stopping by, here's to the short work week, and I'll see you next time.
 
That looks ooohh soo gooood!!!! Watched your video, is that two CI pans you're using or is that a set?
