Korean Braised Short Ribs Recipes

Steps:

• Soak beef short ribs in a large bowl of cold water to remove residual blood, about 30 minutes.
• Place short ribs, onion, ginger, and 2 cloves garlic in a large pot and cover with water. Bring to a boil, skimming any foam that floats to the top, 20 to 30 minutes. Measure out 2 cups of broth and reserve. Drain short ribs and rinse under cold water; discard onion, ginger, and garlic. Cool until easily handled.
• Make slits in each short rib to remove or cut away excess fat.
• Return short ribs to the pot. Add reserved broth, soy sauce, brown sugar, red pepper flakes, 4 minced garlic cloves, rice vinegar, and sesame oil. Simmer over low heat until flavors combine, about 45 minutes. Add potatoes, carrots, mushrooms, chestnuts, and dates. Continue simmering until potatoes are tender and sauce thickens, about 10 minutes.
• Stir corn syrup into the sauce. Simmer until sauce has a slightly syrupy consistency, about 5 minutes more. Garnish with green onion slices and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Heat the grapeseed oil in a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat. Sear the short ribs until brown on all sides, about 3 minutes per side. Reserve on a sheet tray.
• Add the Asian pear, lemongrass, ginger and scallions to the Dutch oven and cook for a few minutes. Add the gochujang and tomato paste and cook another minute or two to caramelize. Add the red wine, beef stock, soy sauce, sesame oil, orange zest and juice, fish sauce, brown sugar, sesame seeds and 2 cups water and bring to a simmer. Add the short ribs back, nestling them in so they are covered with liquid. Braise in the oven for 40 minutes.
• Lower the oven temperature to 250 degrees F and continue to cook until the short ribs are fork-tender, another 2 hours and 15 minutes to 2 hours and 45 minutes.
• Transfer the short ribs to a sheet tray and cover with foil to rest. Strain the cooking liquid, return to the Dutch oven and reduce over medium-high heat until slightly thickened, 5 to 8 minutes. Serve the short ribs over the Sweet Potato Grits, with watercress and the sauce.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• For the sweet potatoes: Prick the sweet potatoes with a fork, wrap in aluminum foil and cook until they feel soft all the way through when you gently squeeze them, about 40 minutes. Allow the sweet potatoes to cool slightly, then scoop out the flesh and mash lightly with a fork. Set aside.
• For the grits: Place 4 cups of water and 1 teaspoon of the salt in a medium heavy-bottomed saucepot and bring to a boil over high heat. Whisk in the grits. Cook, stirring, until the mixture comes back up to a boil, then reduce the heat to the lowest setting, place a lid on top and let simmer for 15 minutes.
• Remove the lid and give the grits a good stir to help them finish absorbing the water. Add the sweet potatoes and stir until well mixed. Fold in the butter and nutmeg. Stir again until smooth. Add the remaining salt. Serve hot.

Steps:

• To make the sauce, combine the soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, fresh ginger, ground ginger, brown sugar, water, rice wine, pear, kiwi, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Whisk to combine.
• Fill a large stockpot with cold water. Soak the short ribs in the water for 30 minutes to 1 hour to pull out impurities. Drain. Score ribs by slicing shallow criss cross cuts across the meat.
• Fill the stockpot with clean water and bring to a boil. Simmer the short ribs in the water for 30 minutes. Drain. Return the simmered ribs to the pot; pour in the sauce, bring to a low boil. Simmer the ribs in the sauce for 60 minutes. Stir in the carrot, potatoes, green onions, yellow onion, chestnuts, and shiitake mushrooms. Simmer until vegetables are tender, at least 30 additional minutes.

Steps:

• Fill a large stockpot with cold water. Soak the short ribs in the water for 30 minutes to 1 hour to pull out impurities. Drain. Score ribs by slicing shallow criss-cross cuts across the meat.
• Fill the stockpot with fresh water and bring it to a boil. Add the ribs and reduce heat to simmer; cook for 30 minutes. Drain the water from the pot.

• Add carrot, potatoes, green and yellow onions and chestnuts and shiitakes if using. Simmer until vegetables are tender, at least another 30 minutes.

Steps:

• Note--To remove the meat from the bones, insert a knife between the rib and meat, staying as close to the bone as possible, and saw the meat off the bone.
• Arrange beef bones in a dish and microwave (in batches if microwave is small) until well browned, 10-15 minutes; transfer to slow cooker.
• Process pear, soy sauce, garlic, scallions, ginger, and vinegar in food processor until smooth, about 1 minute; transfer to slow cooker.
• Stir broth and tapioca into slow cooker.
• Season short ribs with salt and pepper and nestle into slow cooker.
• Cover and cook until beef is tender, 9-11 hours on LOW or 5-7 hours on HIGH.

• Let braising liquid settle for 5 minutes, then remove fat from surface using large spoon.
• Remove bones and season sauce with salt and pepper to taste.
• Stir in cilantro.
• Spoon 1 cup sauce over short ribs and serve with remaining sauce.

Steps:

• Cut ribs in between the bones into 2 to 3 inch pieces and rinse under cold water.
• Mix all ingredients together, except the ribs, in a large bowl.
• Put ribs in a heavy bottom pot and pour the liquid mixture over the ribs and mix well. Turn heat to high and bring to a boil.

• Cook for about 1 1/2 hours.
• Serve with steamed rice.

Steps:

• Mix together all ingredients except ribs, asian pear, potatoes, and carrots. Score the ribs and pour the marinade over. Marinate for about an hour in the refrigerator, or overnight. (Marinating is optional).
• Pour the ribs and marinade into a large pot over high heat. Liquid should come at least halfway up to the level of the ribs; add water if necessary.
• When liquid comes to a full boil, cover the pot with a tight-fitting lid and turn the heat down to simmer.
• Cook for 90 minutes to 1 hour, until meat is tender. Add the Asian pear, potato and carrot about 30 minutes before the end of the cooking time.
• Serve with rice.
