"fondo bruno"

Italian to English Other Cooking / Culinary
I have found roux for this but it is not a roux. The method entails roasting veal bones in the oven, then adding to a pot with vegetables and water and simmering for 3 hours. Any ideas? Thank you. SUE

I remember my dear ol' Granny making this in England. Does anyone bother these days? Glad to have been of help :-))

Scusa Jane, ma sembra che mi dia ragione, poi parliamoci chiaro le ossa normalmente vanno usate per fare buon brodi non credo siano pietanze consistenti...
Sue fai la crtesia di dare il testo in italiano, grazie

Il fondo bruno (o scuro) di vitello, è la base con cui si prepara un ‘ottima ... Togliete le ossa dal forno e ponetele in una capiente casseruola con l’olio ...

Ciao Sue, credo che qui si parla di "gravy", almeno il fondo bruno é il "sughetto" che si ottiene dalla carne dopo la cottura in forno poi viene lavorata con acqua e fecola, in alcuni casi si può aggiungere pepe in grana, liquore o altro a piacimento.

brown stock/veal or beef stock

Can be made with beef or veal or both:

see "Making brown stock at home"
http://www.gatewaygourmet.com/brown_stock.htm

Beef stock
Firstly, brown the beef bones on the floor of the roasting oven, this gives a deeper flavour and brown colour to the stock. Pack them tightly in a saucepan, add vegetables, just cover with water and bring to the boil, cover and transfer to the simmering oven for about 4 hours. Sieve and store in plastic pots.

4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "Brown stock it is, gravy it isn't but thank you Moranna for your input. The method described in Sarah's link is pretty much the recipe I'm translating. Gravy on the other hand, is made from pan juice with the addition of a little flour and water and then served with meat at the table. This brown stock is used as a base for recipes. Thanks!"
