What is this Italian dish?

Ossobuco is a traditional Italian dish originating from Milan, Lombardy. It consists of cross-cut veal shanks braised with vegetables, white wine, and broth. The name "ossobuco" translates to "bone with a hole," referring to the marrow-filled bone that runs through the center of each veal shank. The dish is typically seasoned with garlic, parsley, and lemon zest, which enhance the flavors of the tender meat as it simmers slowly to perfection. Ossobuco is often served with a gremolata—a mixture of finely chopped parsley, garlic, and lemon zest—which adds a fresh and vibrant finish to the rich, savory flavors of the dish. It is enjoyed as a comforting and hearty meal, reflecting the robust culinary traditions of northern Italy.
