Osso buco is traditionally made from cross-cut veal shins which results in the characteristic ring of bone central to each piece.
Traditionally served with risotto Milanese, mashed potato or soft polenta for a comforting winter meal.
Classic comfort food.
Passata is sieved pureed tomato, without any added flavourings; sold in bottles or jars in most supermarkets alongside other bottled pasta sauces. If it's not available, puree canned whole tomatoes then push through a sieve to remove any remaining lumps.
