Sunday Suppers: Citrus Braised Short Ribs
March 9, 2015 By: Kathy Steger13 Comments
There are many emotions poured into the food I make. I put in a lot of love and time into these dishes and no matter what I’m cooking each dish has a story behind it. Seasons, days of the week or the state of my mental being translates into each recipe. Each meal is carefully crafted for my family so when they eat it they know how much of myself went into it. Cooking brings me lots of pleasure and feeding the people I care about is a huge part of what happens in my kitchen. When I cook I teach Briana to appreciate food. Food is memories. Memories she’ll have in her heart for the rest of her life. These short ribs translate into how I feel on Sunday afternoons at home this time of the year. These ribs are a perfect combination of sweet, savory and spice. Braised in orange juice and red pepper flakes to create a sauce that is nothing short of delightful. My husband loves short ribs, it’s almost like a requirement I make them once a month and this is one of his new favorite recipes. Whole Foods sells some of the best short ribs, perfectly cut and perfectly marbled. Make mashed potatoes to go along. Promise you won’t be disappointed. I dare you not to drown them in all the delicious sauce.
Happy Monday!
