Beef Asabuko (Braised Beef Shank with Rosemary Salt)
A rich, comforting braised beef shank dish inspired by classic Italian osso buco. The beef is seasoned with a homemade rosemary‑salt, lightly dusted with flour, and braised with bacon, carrots, onions, tomato paste, red wine and a high‑quality beef bone broth. After a slow 3‑hour oven braise the meat rests in its own juices for an hour, then is finished with a bright parsley‑garlic‑lemon garnish (grammulada). Serve over mashed potatoes, risotto or polenta.
