Short Ribs In Broth With Squash And Shiitakes Recipes

GARLIC BRAISED SHORT RIBS WITH RED WINE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 275 degrees. Heat oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Season short ribs on all sides with salt and pepper. Working in batches, sear short ribs on all sides until deeply and evenly browned, 6 to 8 minutes per batch. Transfer browned short ribs to a large plate and continue with remaining ribs.
• Pour off all but 2 tablespoons of remaining fat, leaving the good browned bits behind. Reduce heat to medium, and add garlic, cut side down and cook, undisturbed, until golden brown, about 1 to 2 minutes. Add onion, celery and carrots and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat and continue to cook until vegetables are softened but not yet browned, about 5 to 10 minutes. Add tomato paste and stir to coat. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until tomato paste has started to caramelize a bit on the bottom and up the edges of the pot, about 2 to 3 minutes.
• Add red wine and, using a wooden spoon, scrape up any browned or caramelized bits. Let this simmer 2 to 3 minutes, just to take the edge off and reduce a bit. Stir in beef stock along with thyme. Using tongs, return short ribs to the pot, along with any juices that have accumulated, nestling them in there so that they are submerged (if they are just barely covered, nestle them bone side up so that all the meat is submerged, adding more beef stock or water as necessary to cover). Bring to a simmer, then cover and transfer to oven.
• Cook, undisturbed, until short ribs are meltingly tender and falling off the bone (you should be able to shred the meat with a fork), 3½ to 4 hours.
• Using tongs, remove the ribs from the pot, taking care (for presentation purposes, really) not to let the bone slip out and transfer them to a large plate. (While you could serve the short ribs right out of this pot, the vegetables have all given up their flavor and texture and aren't worth much now, so feel free to strain the sauce for easier eating.) Scatter parsley, chives and lemon zest over the top of the short ribs. Separate the fat from the sauce, season with salt and pepper and serve alongside.

SOY-BRAISED SHORT RIBS WITH SHIITAKES RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Generously season the short ribs all over with salt and pepper. Let sit at room temperature while you prepare the rest of the ingredients.
• Add the dried shiitake mushrooms to a large heatproof bowl and pour in enough boiling water to cover. Cover with plastic wrap and let soak for 1 hour.
• Preheat the oven to 350˚F (180˚C).
• Heat the canola oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat until almost smoking. Working in 2 batches, sear the short ribs on all sides until deeply browned and crispy, about 10 minutes total. Remove the ribs from the pot and transfer to a plate.
• To pan with excess oil and beef fat, add the onion, Asian pear, ginger, scallions, and garlic, then cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until softened and slightly browned, about 10 minutes.
• Add the rice wine and stir to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
• Add the drained shiitake mushrooms, 1 cup (240 ml) of the shiitake soaking liquid, the sugar, light and dark soy sauces, gochujang, mirin, and sesame oil. Stir and bring to a boil.
• Nestle the short ribs back into the sauce, cover, and braise in the oven for 3 hours, or until the short ribs are tender enough to fall off the bone.
• Serve the short ribs over rice with the braising liquid spooned on top. Top with kimchi, sliced scallions, and toasted sesame seeds.
• Enjoy!

BRAISED BEEF SHORT RIBS WITH SHERRY & SHIITAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325ºF. Season short ribs with salt and pepper on all sides; set aside. In a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat, add oil and butter. When hot, place short ribs until caramelized on all sides. Transfer on a plate and set aside.
• In the same pot, add onion, reduce heat to medium and sauté until soft, about 5 minutes. Add shiitake mushrooms and cook for 3 minutes, stirring constantly to prevent from burning. Add garlic and sauté for 1 minute. Stir in flour to coat ingredients. Pour in beef broth and cooking sherry; scrap any bits at the bottom. Stir in tomato paste, rosemary, balsamic vinegar and cayenne.
• Bring it back to a simmer on medium-high. Place short ribs back and pour more broth over enough to cover meat. Cover and transfer to the preheated oven. Braise for 2 hours or until ribs are fork-tender.
• Remove from heat and transfer short ribs on a plate while working on sauce.
• Put heat on medium and skim off fat on the surface. When simmering, pour in cornstarch mixture and stir until sauce thickens, less than a minute. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Place short ribs over mashed potato, ladle sauce over and sprinkle fresh parsley on top. Makes 4 servings.
