Short Rib Braise

Hollandaise Sauce

Method

Braised Short Rib Preparation

  1. 1

    Brown the Short Ribs

    In a large pot, heat some oil over medium-high heat. Season the short ribs with salt and pepper, then brown them on all sides. Remove and set aside.

  2. 2

    Sauté Vegetables

    In the same pot, add the chopped onion, carrot, and celery. Sauté until softened, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook for an additional minute.

  3. 3

    Deglaze and Add Liquid

    Pour in the red wine, scraping the bottom of the pot to release the browned bits. Add the beef broth, thyme, bay leaf, and return the short ribs to the pot.

  4. 4

    Braise the Ribs

    Bring to a simmer, cover, and reduce heat to low. Braise for about 3 hours, or until the meat is tender.

  5. 5

    Make the Demi-Glace

    Once cooked, remove the short ribs and strain the liquid. Reduce it over medium heat until it thickens to a demi-glace consistency.

Hollandaise Sauce Preparation

  1. 6

    Whisk Egg Yolks

    In a bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and lemon juice until pale and thick.

  2. 7

    Emulsify the Butter

    Slowly drizzle in the melted butter while whisking continuously until the sauce is thick and creamy. Season with salt.

Assembly

  1. 8

    Poach the Eggs

    Bring a pot of water to a simmer. Crack each egg into a small bowl, then gently slide into the water. Poach for about 3-4 minutes until the whites are set.

  2. 9

    Toast the English Muffins

    Split and toast the English muffins until golden brown.

  3. 10

    Assemble the Dish

    On each toasted muffin half, place a portion of the braised short rib, top with a poached egg, and drizzle with hollandaise sauce. Serve with local vegetables on the side.
