Short Ribs Braised with Mushrooms and Tomatoes
57k
Chef John
"The short ribs are slowly braised with easy-to-find dried porcini mushrooms (for real, ask someone at the fancy grocery store and they'll find them for you!) until they turn into a triumph of fork-tender goodness. I love these short ribs over mashed potatoes, but the rich tomato and mushroom gravy is fantastic over soft polenta as well. I really hope you give this cool weather wonder a try."

Directions
{{model.addEditText}} Print- 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.

This is a very nice and simple braised short rib recipe. Chef John is correct when he advised chilling and then serving the next dsy to develop flavor. The only problem I had was the braising ti...

I couldn't decide between this recipe and Chef John's Sherry Braised Short Ribs, so I made this recipe as is, except I only added 1 1/2 cups beef broth and substituted 1/2 cup wine and 1 tablesp...

Like all Chef John's recipes, this one is a winner. I've made this several times to rave reviews by guests. I use boneless short ribs and trim a bit of fat, but not all, from them. He says any...
