Osso Buco Bean and Vegetable Soup as winter has truly set in.
I bought the usual soup mix and I bought the bean soup mix to make 2 different soups (with bony beef shin) but in the end, decided to combine the 2 and make one very big pot of Osso Buco Bean and Vegetable Soup

Some history on Osso Buco
Ossobuco or osso buco is a specialty of Lombard cuisine of cross-cut veal shanks braised with vegetables, white wine, and broth. It is often garnished with gremolata and traditionally served with either risotto alla milanese or polenta, depending on the regional variation. The marrow in the hole in the bone, a prized delicacy, is the defining feature of the dish.
The two types of ossobuco are the modern version that has tomatoes and the original version that does not. The older version, ossobuco in Bianco, is flavored with cinnamon, bay leaf, and gremolata. The modern and more popular recipe includes tomatoes, carrots, celery, and onions; gremolata is optional. While veal is the traditional meat used for ossobuco, dishes with other meats such as pork have been called ossobuco.
On day two, I decided to spice it up with some Cauliflower Breadsticks. Enjoy!
Cauliflower Cheese Breadsticks
Ingredients
1 head of cauliflower
1½ cup of grated mozzarella cheese (divided)
½ cup of grated parmesan cheese
1 large egg
2 tbsp freshly chopped parsley
2 tbsp freshly chopped basil
1 tsp salt
½ tsp freshly ground black pepper
1 tsp smoked paprika (divided) (not in the original recipe)
½ tsp red chili flakes (not in the original recipe)
Method
Preheat oven to 200 °C.
In a processor add your cauliflower and process until crumbly.
Add to a glass bowl and microwave for 30 seconds just to get rid of excess moisture. (my idea is not in the recipe)
Grease a small square baking dish and line it with parchment paper.
Mix all the dry ingredients together except for ½ tsp smoked paprika and ¾ cup mozzarella cheese.
Add the egg to bind and mix well.
Spread into the dish and flatten with a spatula.
Bake for 8-10 minutes.
Remove and sprinkle ¾ cup mozzarella and the ½ tsp smoked paprika and return to the oven till the cheese has melted.
Cut while warm. Enjoy it together with your soup!
