Miso Tomato Braised Short Ribs Recipes

SHORT RIBS BRAISED WITH MUSHROOMS AND TOMATOES

Steps:

• Combine mushrooms and water in a bowl; soak until mushrooms are rehydrated, about 30 minutes. Drain mushrooms and reserve liquid; dice mushrooms.
• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Season short ribs all over with salt and black pepper.
• Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook short ribs in hot oil until browned on all sides, 7 to 12 minutes. Transfer ribs to a Dutch oven.
• Return skillet to heat and saute onion with a pinch of salt in hot pan until softened, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and saute until fragrant, about 1 minute more. Stir mushrooms into onion mixture.
• Pour reserved mushroom liquid into skillet and bring to a boil while scraping the browned bits of food off of the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Stir beef broth, tomato sauce, rosemary, 1/2 teaspoon salt, cayenne pepper, and bay leaf into onion mixture.
• Pour tomato mixture over short ribs into Dutch oven and cover Dutch oven with a lid.
• Cook short ribs in the preheated oven until short ribs are fork-tender, about 2 hours.

GRILLED SHORT RIBS WITH MISO

Steps:

• Whisk soy sauce, sugar, garlic, and oil in 15x10x2-inch glass baking dish. DO AHEAD Can be made 2 hours ahead. Let stand at room temperature. Add ribs to marinade; turn to coat. Let marinate 30 minutes at room temperature, turning occasionally.
• Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Brush grill with oil. Grill ribs until cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove meat from bones and wrap in lettuce leaves with small amount of miso and Sticky Rice.

MISO- AND MAYO-MARINATED SHORT RIBS WITH SPICY SAUCE

Steps:

• Stir miso, mayonnaise, and 2 Tbsp. vinegar in a small bowl. Place ribs on a rimmed baking sheet, pat dry, and season lightly with salt. Pour all but 2 Tbsp. miso mixture over ribs; turn to coat. Set remaining miso mixture aside.
• Thinly slice radishes and toss in a medium bowl with remaining 1 Tbsp. vinegar. Season with salt and toss again.
• Heat a large heavy skillet, preferably cast iron, over medium-high. When pan is hot, add 2 tsp. oil and swirl to coat. Cook half of ribs without turning until underside is very dark brown and charred in spots, about 2 minutes. Turn ribs and cook until second side is golden brown, 1-2 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Repeat with remaining 2 tsp. oil and remaining ribs. Let rest 5 minutes.
• Season reserved miso mixture with Sriracha, taste it, and adjust until it's the right amount of spicy for you. Add more vinegar, if desired. Cut ribs crosswise into 2 or 3 pieces; serve over bowls of rice, topped with watercress and drained radishes and drizzled with spicy sauce.

MISO-BRAISED SHORT RIBS TEMPURA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
• Trim off any excess fat from the short ribs. In a large saucepan or flameproof casserole, combine 3 quarts of water, the black, white, and Szechuan peppercorns, bay leaves, and thyme. Bring to a boil over high heat. Add the short ribs and partially cover the pot. Reduce the heat to low. Simmer the ribs, skimming off any foam from the surface, until the meat is almost tender when pierced with the tip of a sharp knife, about 1 1/2 hours. Do not overcook, because the ribs will cook further in 2 later steps. Remove the ribs from the braising liquid and let cool to room temperature.
• Bring the Shanton Broth and red miso to a boil in a large saucepan over high heat, whisking to dissolve the miso. Add the short ribs and reduce the heat to low. Simmer uncovered, turning occasionally, until the ribs are very tender but not falling apart, about 1 1/2 hours. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the short ribs to a plate and let cool completely. Then remove the meat from the bones, trying to keep each rib in 1 chunk.
• While the ribs are cooling, skim off as much fat as you can from the Shanton-Miso broth. Boil over high heat until the liquid is reduced to 1 cup, about 20 minutes. Strain the sauce and set aside. (The short ribs and sauce can be prepared up to 1 day ahead, separately cooled, covered, and refrigerated. Remove from the refrigerator at least 1 hour before deep-frying.)
• Heat the oil in a deep-fryer or pour vegetable oil into a large saucepan to reach halfway up the sides. Heat over high heat to 350 degrees F.
• Working with half of the short ribs at a time, coat the ribs with the all-purpose flour, shaking off any excess. Dip in the tempura batter and let extra batter drip back into the bowl. Add the coated ribs to the hot oil and deep-fry until light golden brown, about 2 minutes. Using a slotted skimmer, transfer to a wire rack set on a baking sheet to drain. Keep warm in the low oven while frying the remaining short ribs.
• To serve, spoon equal amounts of the sauce onto 4 dinner plates. Top each with 2 pieces of Short Rib Tempura and serve immediately.
• In a medium bowl, beat the egg yolk with a fork. Whisk in the vegetable oil until blended and then the club soda. Add the flour and stir with chopsticks until just barely combined. Don't worry if some flour floats on top.

BEEF SHORT RIBS

Steps:

• Place ribs in a large heavy-based saucepan, cover with cold water and bring to the boil over high heat. Strain, then return ribs to pan and cover once more with fresh water. Bring to the boil and simmer, skimming off any impurities, for 1 hour. Remove from heat and allow ribs to cool in water at room temperature. Once cooled, drain and place in a bowl. Set aside.
• Preheat oven to 180°C. Meanwhile, heat oil in a wide, heavy-based saucepan over high heat. Add onion, chilli, garlic, Sichuan, white pepper, chilli powder, allspice and coriander, and cook, stirring occasionally, until fragrant and onion has softened (4 minutes). Add tomatoes, sugar, Chinkiang, miso, beer and stock and season to taste. Bring to the boil, reduce heat to medium and simmer for flavours to develop (6 minutes). Place ribs in a large roasting pan, season to taste, then pour sauce over ribs and turn to coat.
• Roast ribs, basting frequently, for 2 hours or until meat is tender and falling off the bone. To serve, transfer ribs to serving plates, drizzle with sauce from pan and scatter with black pepper.

MISO-TOMATO BRAISED SHORT RIBS

Steps:

• Season ribs with salt and pepper. Rub miso all over ribs to evenly coat. Tightly wrap in butcher paper or plastic, transfer to a large resealable bag or container, and refrigerate at least 24 hours and up to 3 days. Bring to room temperature 1 hour before cooking.
• Preheat oven to 325°F. Unwrap ribs and wipe off excess miso with a paper towel. Heat a wide pot over medium; swirl in 2 tablespoons oil. Working in two batches, brown ribs on meaty sides, about 5 minutes (if pot bottom darkens too quickly, wipe clean between batches). Transfer to a plate.
• Swirl remaining 1 tablespoon oil into pot. Add shallots, fennel, celery, ginger, and thyme; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables turn golden in places, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in tomato paste, allspice, and bay leaf and cook 1 minute. Add wine and boil, scraping up browned bits from bottom of pot, until mostly evaporated, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Return ribs and accumulated juices to pot, bone-sides down. Crush tomatoes into pieces with your hands or a masher; add to pot with tomato juices, 1 1/2 cups broth, and orange zest and juice. If necessary, add more broth to just cover ribs. Bring to a simmer.
• Cover pot and transfer to oven; braise 2 hours. Remove lid and continue to braise, spooning liquid over ribs a few times, until meat is fork-tender, 1 to 1 1/2 hours more. Transfer ribs to a platter and loosely cover to keep warm.
• Strain braising liquid through a mesh sieve, pressing on solids to extract as much liquid as possible; discard solids. Spoon excess fat from liquid (or use a fat separator). Transfer liquid to a small saucepan and bring to a boil.
• Meanwhile, whisk together remaining 1/2 cup broth and flour until smooth. Slowly whisk into braising liquid. Boil, whisking constantly, until thickened slightly, about 30 seconds. Sprinkle ribs with fennel fronds and pomegranate arils and serve with gravy.

MISO-BRAISED BEEF WITH KING MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Season beef with kosher salt, black pepper, and cayenne.
• Heat peanut oil in a pan over high heat. Brown beef strips on all sides, about 3 minutes per side. Turn off heat and transfer beef to a plate.
• Let pan cool slightly, 1 to 2 minutes; melt butter in residual heat. Turn heat to medium and add mushrooms, cut-side down. Cook until mushrooms are lightly brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip; continue to cook until golden, 2 to 3 minutes more. Add onion and season with salt; cook until slightly golden, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Stir in sake and deglaze the pan, scraping up browned bits using a wooden spoon. Stir in miso, maple syrup, ketchup, and chicken broth; bring to a simmer, about 5 minutes. Add browned beef, mushrooms, and their juices.
• Cover and let simmer over low to medium-low heat until meat is fork-tender, 2 to 3 hours, turning beef halfway through cooking time.
• Stir in vinegar, chiles, and green onions. Cover and cook for 5 minutes more. Taste and adjust seasonings.
