Hi Susan
I don’t eat celery raw as I don’t like the taste. However, I can tell it is
missing from a braise. It’s one of those background flavours. But I strain out
all the bits to condense the sauce. A small slice of citrus peel I also like to
put in, along with shitakes and the rehydration liquid. Of course Osso Bucco
has none of these.
Cheers
Steve

Hi Vicki,
Thanks for the recipe. Will try it when I get some beef with marrow bones.
I know that carrots and celery are the standard requirements for most
"Western" (as compared to Asian) recipes but I do agree with the writer
that they aren't always welcome (I have a child that does not like either).
Onions and garlic are a must, and can I just say that 4 to 5 cloves of garlic
(as per recipe) will not be anywhere near enough for us?
More like 1 or 2 (or 3!!) heads of the garlic goes into any braise/stew of
any decent quantity.

Jules,
This is the recipe I based mine off:
http://abstractgourmet.com/2007/08/theres-a-buco-in-my-osso/<https://urldefense.com/v3/__http:/abstractgourmet.com/2007/08/theres-a-buco-in-my-osso/__;!!Nd8K6TfUt9jcQpcU_mCx!7aVNcxUddiJFLbOJRXFHeLnv0_MouTo5MLekCiuDEyODtQoo2RduyYYGkvx3qJb8X4tSKf_w$>
I scaled down for the two of us, and added a bay leaf and a sprig of rosemary.
Still really, really simple.
Matt is a friend from a long time back. He is a techhead, but used to write for
a West Aussie foodie magazine called Spice. I loved it, but it didn’t last the
distance... I remember having him over for dinner once, tried a new (to me)
recipe and it was a flop. (Pretty sure I wrote to this list about it at the
time haha.) He was very nice about it 😂 and helped me season my first ever,
brand new, cast iron pans that happened to have arrived that day. He’s now
married to a wonderful Colombian woman and they have a food van business called
Marcelita’s Empanadas and do all the local foodie markets (though he still
works full time as a techhead) but I digress…
Vicki. :-)
