Short Ribs In Red Wine Sauce - Further adventure in Induction
They are cooking in the ceramic covered cast iron casserole on the
induction cooker. So far it smells heavenly. I think the induction cooker's temp settings are a bit low. Their "medium-low" is about 20 degrees to low, but I'm learning to adapt. Will make mashed red potato for that lovely gravy. Had an open bottle of Hill Country Tempranillo and used that for the wine, so it should have a lot of body in that gravy. The frying temps on the induction thing are dead-on accurate. One of these days I'm going to make some coconut shrimp, then I'll cry because it was one of Barry's favorites. -- From somewhere very deep in the heart of Texas |

Braised with mirepoix in some beef stock, Robert Mondavi Cab, and strained tomatoes. Served on a bed of polenta. I think this is just about my favourite food. Too bad sort ribs are so expensive.

Chefs are always looking for ways to stand out and the cheap cuts were a way to make them noticed by the media. They ruined it for the rest of us....and fajitas are the culprits for the rise in price of flank steak too. dammit ;-) |

Sound choice, though I watched Ming Tsai and a guest chef use one of those multi-prong meat tenderizers to perforate a flank steak to wonderful tenderness. Iirc, they used Kimchee for the marinade, which certainly didn't hurt either. http://createtv.com/CreateProgram.ns...e/Simply+Ming# Tenderizing with Guest Jamie Bissonnette #1008 This week on Simply Ming - tenderizing - a culinary technique that helps meat, chicken and fish absorb all the wonderful flavors of your favorite marinades.

There is a restaurant about 20 minutes from here that has lamb shanks on their menu at $16. It comes with garlic mashed and sauteed seasonal veggies. They are braised with a dark beer. We go there frequently and delude ourselves into thinking it is almost like doing them at home but without the work. But seriously, it would cost almost that much to buy enough shanks for two people, plus the broth and the wine or beer for braising, the vegetables that go into the braising dish, the potatoes, the vegetables. We end up paying someone just a few dollars to cook it, serve it and to clean up. When I crave lamb shanks I tend to go there instead of cooking them myself. The down side of those shanks is that I went there at least a half dozen times before I tried anything else on the menu. I kept meaning to try their other dishes, but I kept remembering how good the lamb shanks where. We were there a couple weeks ago with a friend I and I did not have the lamb. I opted for mahi mahi on quinoa , which was excellent. |

It's a restaurant dish. Kinda sad, isn't it? Hubby loves short ribs when they've been cooked in red wine, but they're so expensive now that the restaurant where he liked them best stopped using short ribs a couple of years ago and switched to chuck. > > The down side of those shanks is that I went there at least a half dozen > times before I tried anything else on the menu.

I can't tell you when the last time was that I saw a flank steak in the meat case - which means it's not popular here and it's not just me. -- Avoid cutting yourself when slicing vegetables by getting someone else to hold them. |

Heh... it is! My DD gave it to me a couple of years ago. Do you think there might be a subtext to it? LOL -- Avoid cutting yourself when slicing vegetables by getting someone else to hold them. |

Seems like it gets the job done and I think you'll like it. I would say I'd buy it, but in fact - I've looked at it for years and I don't cook that way so it's not high on my "must" buy list. To give you an example of what I buy: I had never given a mini-mortar & pestle a second thought - but when I saw it a couple of days ago I bought the smallest one on the shelf (due to a thread on FB) http://tinypic.com/usermedia.php?uo=... .VAU4V_ldWLA because it's something I can visualize myself using (like for powdering saffron). -- Avoid cutting yourself when slicing vegetables by getting someone else to hold them. |

If there isn't, there should be! It's very heavy and could do serious damage in the wrong hands. -- Avoid cutting yourself when slicing vegetables by getting someone else to hold them. |
