Ginger Glazed Short Ribs Recipes

GINGER-GLAZED SHORT RIBS

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 325 degrees. In a saucepan, boil the wine over high heat until reduced to 1/2 cup.
• Generously sprinkle the ribs on all sides with salt and transfer to a large roasting pan, bone side up. Scatter the garlic, mushrooms, carrots, onions, celery, ginger, allspice, cinnamon, konbu and thyme on the ribs. Mix 6 cups of the stock and vinegar with the reduced wine and add to the ribs. The liquid should come about 2/3 of the way up the sides of the meat. Add more stock if needed.
• Cover the pan tightly with layers of foil. Transfer to the oven and cook until the meat is very tender, 3 1/2 to 4 hours.
• Remove from the oven and carefully remove the foil. When the ribs are cool enough to handle, transfer them to a dish. Remove and discard the bones and any bits of vegetables and spice.
• Strain the liquid in the pan through a sieve and discard the solids. Let the liquid settle, then spoon off the fat or use a fat separator. You should have about a quart of liquid. (At this point, you can refrigerate the meat and sauce, separately, for up to three days.)
• To finish the dish, heat the oven to 375 degrees. Put the strained liquid back in the roasting pan and bring to a boil on the stove. Add the meat in a single layer. Transfer to the oven and baste frequently with the liquid, until shiny and thick but not sticky, and until the ribs are well glazed, 10 to 20 minutes. Serve the ribs with extra sauce.

KOREAN-STYLE GINGER ALE-BRAISED SHORT RIBS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300°F. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Working in batches if necessary, brown the short ribs on all sides, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer the ribs to a plate and clean the pot. Add the garlic, scallion whites and pale greens and remaining 2 teaspoons oil to the Dutch oven and cook over medium heat, stirring, until lightly browned, about 1 minute. Stir in the tomato paste and cook until the color darkens, about 30 seconds. Add the Canada Dry Ginger Ale and soy sauce and bring to a boil, stirring to incorporate the tomato paste. Gently place the ribs and any accumulated juices in the pot. Cover and cook in the oven until fork-tender, about 1½ hours. Transfer the pot to the stovetop, uncover and cook over medium heat, spooning the sauce over the ribs occasionally so they don't dry out, until the sauce is very thick and glazes the ribs, 25 to 30 minutes more. Meanwhile, finely chop the scallion greens. Mix half of them together with the jalapeno, lime zest and sesame seeds in a small bowl. (Reserve the remaining greens for another use.) Transfer the ribs to a platter, sprinkle with the sesame mixture and serve with lettuce leaves, steamed rice and kimchi.

ORANGE-GINGER GRILLED SHORT RIBS

Steps:

• Make the glaze: Combine the orange juice, brown sugar, tamari, peppercorns, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon ground pepper, the anise and ginger in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce to a simmer and cook until reduced by half, about 15 minutes. Strain and let cool.
• Grill the short ribs: Toss the ribs with 1/2 cup of the glaze, reserving the remaining glaze for brushing. Set aside the ribs at room temperature for 30 minutes.
• Preheat a grill to medium high. Remove the ribs from the glaze, shaking off the excess. Brush with the canola oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill the ribs, brushing occasionally with the reserved glaze, until nicely charred but still pink in the middle, about 3 minutes per side.
• Make the scallion-peanut relish: Combine the peanuts, scallions, brown sugar, allspice and cinnamon in a bowl and sprinkle lightly with salt. Transfer the ribs to a platter and top with the relish.

ORANGE-GINGER GRILLED BONELESS SHORT RIBS WITH GREEN ONION-PEANUT RELISH

Steps:

• For the orange-ginger glaze: Combine the juice, sugar, tamari, peppercorns, ground pepper, salt, anise and ginger in a saucepan. Cook over high heat, stirring occasionally, until reduced by half. Strain and cool.
• For the grilled boneless short ribs: Toss the ribs with 1/2 cup of the glaze, reserving the remaining glaze. Set aside the ribs at room temperature for 30 minutes. Prepare the grill for direct grilling at medium-high heat. Remove the ribs from the glaze, shaking off the excess. Brush the ribs with the oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill the ribs until nicely charred and still pink in the middle, about 3 minutes each side. Brush the ribs occasionally with the reserved glaze.
• For the green onion-peanut relish: Combine the peanuts, onions, sugar, allspice, cinnamon and sprinkle lightly with salt. Transfer the ribs to a platter and top with the green onion-peanut relish.

GINGER SHORT RIBS

Steps:

• Peel ginger and cut into matchsticks 1/8 to 1/4 inch thick and 2 to3 inches long (you should have 1 1/3 cups).
• Rinse ribs, drain, and lay in a single layer in a 12-by 16-inch casserole at least 2 inches deep.
• Evenly distribute ginger, onions, and pineapple over and around meat.
• Mix 1 cup water with 1/3 cup soy sauce and add to casserole, cover tightly with foil.
• Bake in a 375 degree oven until meat is tender when pierced, 2 3/4 to 3 hours; halfway through baking, turn ribs in sauce and if necessary, add water to bring liquid level up to 3/4 inch.
• Uncover ribs and bake until browned, about, 10 minutes.
• Skim fat from juices and discard.
• Scatter sliced mint over meat; garnish with mint sprigs.
• Add more soy sauce to taste.

SOY SAUCE-MARINATED SHORT RIBS WITH GINGER

Steps:

• Whisk soy sauce, sugar, oil, red pepper flakes, garlic, ginger, star anise, and 1 cup water in a large bowl until sugar is dissolved. Add short ribs and place a small plate on top of short ribs to keep submerged. Cover bowl and chill at least 8 hours and up to 1 day.
• Preheat oven to 325°F. Transfer marinade and ribs to a large Dutch oven and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cover and braise in oven, turning meat once, until ribs are very tender but not quite falling off the bone, 1 1/2-2 hours.
• Transfer ribs to a medium bowl and cover with foil to keep warm. Strain braising liquid into a medium saucepan; discard solids. Let sit a minute or so to settle, then ladle off fat from surface; discard. Bring braising liquid to a boil and cook, whisking occasionally, until reduced by half, 10-15 minutes.
• Whisk cornstarch and 3 Tbsp. water in a small bowl to make a slurry, then whisk into reduced braising liquid. Cook over medium, whisking constantly, until glaze is thick and bubbling, about 1 minute. Remove from heat and stir in lime juice.
• Mound rice in center of shallow bowls and place ribs on top. Drizzle about 2 Tbsp. glaze over each (you'll have plenty left over; save it and serve with grilled steak or chicken). Top with scallion and sesame seeds. Serve with lime wedges and Sriracha.

SWEET GINGER RIBS

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk the first 10 ingredients until blended. In a small container, reserve 1 cup marinade for basting. Divide ribs and the remaining marinade between 2 large resealable plastic bags; seal bags and turn to coat. Refrigerate ribs and reserved marinade overnight., Remove ribs, discarding remaining marinade from bags. Grill ribs, covered, over indirect medium heat 1-1/2-2 hours or until tender, basting occasionally with reserved marinade during the last half hour.
