Boil water in a large pot.

Add brisket and osso buco to the boiling water, seasoning with salt.

Cook the meats for about 1 hour and 15 to 1 hour and 30 minutes until tender.

Skim off any impurities that rise to the surface, if necessary.

After the meat is tender, add a peeled onion, peeled carrot, cut corn, and a clove of garlic to the pot.

Cover with water and do not use any artificial broth, keeping it natural.

After 5 to 10 minutes, add softer vegetables: a piece of pumpkin with skin, celery, and a peeled sweet potato, all cut to similar sizes.

Cover with water again and cook for an additional 20 to 25 minutes until everything is soft.

Keep the heat low until everything is ready.

Once cooked, taste and adjust seasoning with a bit of salt, vinegar, and olive oil before serving.
