Demi Glace

Instructions
 

  • Drizzle short ribs with oil and season with salt, pepper, smoked paprika, and garlic and herb seasoning. Massage well.
  • To your dutch oven heated to medium high heat, add in oil and brown short ribs on each side for about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove from pot and set aside.
  • To the same pot, add in onions, celery, and carrots and sauté for 2 minutes before adding in garlic. Sauté for one more minute.
  • Add in tomato paste and cook for 2 minutes, stirring frequently. Deglaze the pan by adding in red wine and cook until its reduced by half. Add your short ribs back into the pot.
  • Cover short ribs with beef stock and beef bouillon and add in all herbs. Cover with lid and place into an oven heated to 350℉ for 2.5 hours.

Demi Glace

  • Once short ribs are cooked and fork tender, strain all liquid from the short ribs and place in a sauce pan with beef stock on medium heat until its reduced by ⅓.
  • To a separate sauce pan, add in butter and once melted add in flour. Stir for one minute, until the raw flour is cooked out.
  • Add in reduced liquid and whisk together until sauce is thickened. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Serve on top of short ribs. Enjoy!
