Ingredients
  

  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 bunch parsley
  • Grated zest of 1 lemon

Instructions
 

  • To make the gremolata, grate the lemon zest. Peel the garlic, and give it a whack with the flat side of a larger knife. Remove the thicker stems from the parsley.
    Grate only the very outer, yellow peel of the lemon, not the white part!

  • Finally, add the grated lemon zest and mix everything together.
    Making gremolata 3
  • The gremolata is ready. Sprinkle it fresh over ossobuco or another dish.
    If you have any left, store it in a sealable container in the refrigerator for 1–2 days, or in the freezer for a few months. But it won’t be as aromatic as when freshly made.
