directions
- Heat oil in deep, heavy bottomed sauce pot.
- Coat short ribs well with flour and sear all sides of the short ribs until dark brown.
- Remove short ribs from pot.
- Add in celery, carrots, onion, garlic, bay leaves and black peppercorns to sauce pot.
- Cook all vegetables until golden brown and add short ribs back to sauce pot.
- Deglaze sauce pot with red wine, soy sauce and sugar.
- Reduce liquid by half and add in beef broth or veal stock.
- Braise meat on medium heat for approximately 1-2 hours until fork tender.
- Remove short ribs and vegetables.
- Reduce the liquid until it reaches a sauce like consistency and serve with short ribs.
- Serve short ribs with the braised vegetables over pearl onion barley.
- PEARL ONION & BARLEY.
- Use a medium sized, heavy bottomed sauce pot.
- Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in pot.
- Add leeks, mushrooms and pearl onions. Sauté until shiny.
- Add the barley and vegetable stock.
- Turn down heat to low and stir occasionally for approximately 30 minutes.
- Barley should be almost tender. Most of the liquid should be absorbed into the barley.
- Keep heat on low and add in mascarpone cheese, remaining butter, ground pepper and salt to taste. This will bind the barley and make it creamier. Serve immediately.
- Tear your favorite fresh herbs over the top of the barley as an extra touch if desired.

<p>Aloha! I just recently started spending more time in the kitchen and am learning that cooking and baking can be fun as well as challenging. My favorite cookbook resources are my 'gourmet' sister and the very patient and generous Ohana of Zaar. Mahalo nui loa! <br /><br />My rating system: The first time I try a recipe, I follow the instructions as given; if I do a little tweaking, I keep that in mind when rating. It's not right to rate lower because of something I did or didn't do. <br />***** ... Excellent! Tasted great with/without tweaking. <br />**** ... Loved It! Tasted great with/without tweaking. <br />No stars ... May be an excellent recipe but I was unable to get it to work for me. May or may not try again later. We don't all have the same taste preferences. I've found recipes with lots of five stars that just didn't work for me and some with less that I thought were great. <br />Thank you All for sharing!</p>
