Korean Style Ginger Ale 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:

• Score ribs every 1/2-inch along the length and width of the bone, making sure not to cut too deep so the meat will stay attached to the bone.
• Combine the remaining ingredients in a bowl to make the marinade. Pour the marinade over the ribs and push the sauce into the cuts so it gets all the way down to the bone. Turn the ribs over face down in the marinade and cover for a minimum of 2 hours or refrigerate overnight for a stronger flavor.
• Remove ribs from the marinade and barbecue over a charcoal grill. Serve ribs with Cucumber Kimchi, steamed rice, and green Korean peppers. Enjoy!
• Make 3 deep slashes of equal size along the length of the cucumbers. Make sure not to cut all the way to the end of the cucumber to keep the cucumbers whole.
• Dissolve the 2 tablespoons of salt in the water. Soak the cucumbers for 2 hours to soften so they won't crack when they get stuffed.
• For the stuffing, combine the remaining ingredients except for the chicken stock and mix well.
• Squeeze as much water as possible out of the cucumbers. Stuff the turnip mixture tightly into the cuts. Place the cucumbers in a jar with the remaining stuffing and let sit for 3hours. Pour the chicken stock over the cucumbers and let stand at room temperature for 24 hours. Refrigerate and serve with Korean short ribs.

Steps:

• Clean the ginger well
• Rinse the cinnamon in cold water.
• Thin slice the ginger.
• Put the ginger, cinnamon, and water into a pot.
• Boil it on medium (or low) heat for about 25-30 minutes.
• Sieve the ginger and cinnamon. (Use a white straining cloth if you can, to catch the small dirt from the cinnamon).
• Serve it in a tea cup. (You can also add some pine nuts and honey).

Steps:

• Rinse short ribs in cold water, pat dry and place in a wide shallow bowl. In another bowl, mix together soy sauce, brown sugar, rice wine, sesame oil, black pepper and cayenne.
• Put onion, garlic, pear and ginger in the work bowl of a food processor. Grind ingredients to a smooth purée, then add to soy sauce mixture. Add sesame seeds. Thin with ¼ cup water. Pour marinade over short ribs and mix well. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight. Bring to room temperature, drain and discard marinade.
• Cook short ribs on a hot grill or under the broiler for 2 to 3 minutes per side, until nicely browned but juicy. Pile grilled meat on a platter and serve immediately with lettuce leaves on the side. Accompany with sliced hot peppers, ssamjang and steamed rice, if desired.

Steps:

• Grind sesame seeds to a coarse powder in grinder. Reserve 1/4 cup scallion greens, then whisk together remaining scallions, garlic, soy sauce, brown sugar, hot-pepper paste, sesame oil, and 2 tablespoons sesame-seed powder in a large bowl. Reserve remaining sesame-seed powder for serving. Add short ribs to soy sauce mixture, rubbing mixture into them. Transfer ribs to a large sealable plastic bag and seal bag, pressing out excess air. Marinate, chilled, at least 8 hours.
• Transfer ribs to a wide 6- to 8-quart heavy pot and add water and ginger. Simmer, tightly covered, until ribs are very tender, about 3 hours.
• Transfer ribs to a platter using tongs and keep warm, covered with foil. Skim fat from sauce and pour sauce through a sieve lined with a dampened paper towel into a bowl, then discard solids. Serve ribs with sauce in shallow bowls and sprinkle with reserved scallion greens and remaining sesame-seed powder.
