2. Prepare Veal: In a heavy ovenproof Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Dredge veal shanks in flour, shaking off excess. Brown veal shanks on both sides, about 5 minutes per side. Remove from the Dutch oven and set aside.

3. Saute Vegetables: Add butter to the Dutch oven. Add chopped onion, carrot, celery, minced garlic, orange zest, and lemon zest. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened.

4. Deglaze: Pour in white wine, stirring to deglaze the bottom of the pot. Add chopped tomatoes, salt, dried thyme, dried basil, bay leaf, chopped parsley, and freshly ground black pepper.

5. Braise: Return the browned veal shanks to the pot. Cover and transfer to the preheated oven. Braise for 1 1/2 hours, or until the veal is tender and falling off the bone.

6. Blend Sauce: Remove the veal shanks from the pot and keep warm. Pour the sauce from the pot into a blender and puree until smooth.

7. Prepare Gremolata: In a small bowl, combine chopped parsley, minced garlic, orange zest, and lemon zest.

8. Serve: Place the braised veal shanks on serving plates. Pour the pureed sauce over the veal. Sprinkle with gremolata. Serve with cooked risotto on the side.

This Osso Bucco recipe yields a deliciously tender and flavorful dish that pairs perfectly with creamy risotto. Enjoy this hearty meal for a special occasion or a comforting weeknight dinner.
