Caught this episode of Rachael's show, and daughter said, "Why don't you make that for dinner tonight?" No veal shanks at the local store, so I substituted beef shanks center cut-inexpensive, btw. Also no pistachios so substituted hazelnuts in gremolata. Tied shanks as Rachael suggested; however, won't do so again because the string came off during the initial browning from shrinkage. Didn't have tomato paste so that was omitted, and used only 1/2 tsp. of red pepper flakes rather than whole chile or 1 tsp. in the recipe-and it still had plenty of kick. Also used dried thyme, rosemary, and bay leaves rather than fresh, and only 3 cloves of garlic. Even with those changes, the flavor in this recipe is awesome, and the level is more "Easy" than "Intermediate." Can't wait to get home tonight to have some of the leftovers! Definitely will make this yummy recipe again. Thanks to Rachael for her always flavor-packed menus!
