Short Ribs

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Short Ribs

    Season the beef short ribs with salt and black pepper. In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat sesame oil over medium-high heat and sear the short ribs on all sides until browned. Remove from the pot and set aside.

  2. 2

    Make the Braising Liquid

    In the same pot, add shoyu, grated ginger, sugar, and black garlic. Stir to combine and bring to a simmer.

  3. 3

    Braise the Ribs

    Return the short ribs to the pot and add enough water to cover the ribs. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and cover. Let simmer for about 2.5 to 3 hours until the ribs are tender.

  4. 4

    Cook the Rice

    While the ribs are braising, rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear. In a separate pot, combine the rice and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 18-20 minutes until the rice is tender and water is absorbed.

  5. 5

    Prepare the 6-Minute Eggs

    Bring a pot of water to a boil. Gently add the eggs and boil for 6 minutes. Remove the eggs and place them in an ice bath to cool before peeling.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Once the short ribs are tender, serve them over a bed of rice. Cut the 6-minute eggs in half and place on top of the ribs. Garnish with sliced green onions.
