I?d like to introduce you to a new word: DALSian. It is defined as follows:
[DAHLS'-ee-uhn] adj ? used to describe a recipe displaying hallmarks of blog Dinner: A Love Story; simple, fresh, un-intimidating, frequently strategy-driven and generally requiring key ingredients found in non-fetishy food person?s pantry.
Naturally, I?d like to think every recipe on DALS is DALSian, but there are many that seem to deserve the title more obviously than most. (And a few who deserve it less: we ?d get bored superfast if it weren?t for edible flowers on pizza,?Maya Kaimal?s chicken curry,?and Bugiali?s high-maintenance, high-happiness Minestrone every now and then.)
A few DALSian champs that come to my mind immediately: Pretzel Chicken, Pomegranate-Juice-Braised Pork with Cabbage, Tony?s Steak,?Salmon Salad. Some of these, like the pork, I discover by accident; others, like the salmon salad, are tweaked over years and years through tantrums and tantrums. But often, like the Pretzel Chicken, the recipes are sent to me by readers.
Which brings me to the latest dish to be crowned with the title: Korean Short Ribs.
Can you please take a look at the photo up there? That?s pretty much all I needed to make a big pot of them for a showstopping potluck centerpiece this past weekend. The recipe came from reader Anna with the following note:
i just read the tumultuous tuesdays post and felt compelled to email you my top ten crockpot meals.? i send it to all our family and friends when they have a baby.? if they live in town, i print it off and include it with some freezer meals for their family.? if they don?t and i know they don?t own a crockpot, i email the file and send a crockpot from target.? it?s getting the be the season where we all think about using the crockpot. so, enjoy!
xo, anna
Now, first of all, how jealous are you of her friends? And of me ? who gets delicious dinner ideas regularly sent to my inbox from nice people in Nebraska! Anna is not just a reader, of course. Besides being the woman behind?Clementines Produce & Provisions, she won the Weeknight Recipe Contest a few year?s back ? her Kale, White Bean, and Sausage Stew was so DALSian, it made it into my book. I don?t own a crockpot, but I opened up the file and immediately lasered in on the third recipe listed, those aforementioned ribs. You wanna talk DALSian? This recipe listed five ingredients ? one of which was water ? and one line of instruction. I decided then and there to translate it to my Dutch Oven to see what would happen. This is what happened:
This photo was taken while daylight was still good ? the ribs would cook down another hour or so until the beef was rich and melty and the salty-sweet sauce dark and thick. The only problem was that I had somehow neglected to realize that the younger diners attending the potluck might be inclined to eat it too. In my head, like a dummy, I had earmarked it for the adults only (how have I not learned this lesson?) and watched as kid after kid decimated their portion, leaving a scant single rib for each adult diner.
But I guess of all the criteria that define a DALSian dinner, ?kid-friendly? should probably be right at the top of the list.
Korean Short Ribs (the no-slow-cooker version)
The only change I made to Anna?s was replacing jalapenos with Sriracha (I didn?t have jalapenos) and next time I might add a few slices of fresh ginger in the braising liquid because?well, why not? As Andy would say, it?s not like it?s going to be bad.
1 T. canola or vegetable oil
3-4 pounds beef short ribs, salted and peppered (I used a combination of bone-in and boneless ? don?t ask ? but I prefer all boneless)
1 c. of brown sugar
1 c. soy sauce, low sodium
? c. water
2 teaspoons Sriracha
scallions for garnish
Heat oven to 325?F. In a Dutch Oven set over medium-high heat, add oil, then brown short ribs in batches. Whisk together remaining ingredients and add to the pot with all the beef. (The meat should be almost fully immersed when you begin, and then cook down as you go. But keep an eye on liquid ? it should be at least a third of the way up the pot. If it?s not, add a mix of 1 part water to 1 part soy, a little at a time.) Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cover, leaving lid slightly ajar, and place inside oven. Cook 3 to 4 hours, flipping ribs every 30 minutes or so, until liquid has thickened and meat is falling off the bone. Serve topped with chopped scallions.
PS: How?s this for awesome? Anna has posted not only the slow-cooker version of this for you crockpot owners, but her entire Top Ten Slow-Cooker File. Head over to her site to download. You rock, Anna!
