Gremolata
Preamble
This is the classic accompaniment to Ossobuco.
Ingredients
1 clove garlic, crushed in the garlic press
1 teaspoon grated orange rind (no white part)
1 teaspoon grated lemon rind (no white part)
Salt and freshly ground pepper.
Method
Mix the ingredients together and add to the casserole about 3 minutes before removing it from the heat.
As gremolata has become fashionable, it is often served as a garnish, on the top of the osso buco as it reaches the table. However it is really best to add it a few minutes before taking off heat to allow the flavours to be absorbed. This gives better flavour though you lose the effect of the colour contrast.
