Tuscan Style Spareribs With Balsamic Glaze Recipes

BALSAMIC-GLAZED OVEN-BAKED RIBS

Steps:

• To prepare the ribs, heat the oven to 350 degrees. If the butcher has not removed the membrane on the back of each rack, gently pry it up by sliding a sharp implement (like the tip of an instant-read thermometer) under it, then lifting gently. Grab the membrane with a paper towel and peel it off.
• Spread a 24-inch sheet of heavy-duty aluminum foil, shiny side up, on a work surface. Place one rack on top, rub it all over with oil, and generously season both sides with salt. Place 2 parsley sprigs and 2 garlic cloves under the concave side of the rack and 2 thyme sprigs on top. Wrap the ribs in the foil, pleating the edges to seal well. Repeat with the second rack. Place the rib packets in a large roasting pan.
• Roast the ribs for 30 minutes, then reduce the temperature to 250 degrees. Cook 1 1/2 to 2 hours more, until the meat has shrunk back from the ends of the bones by 1/4 to 1/2 inch and the ribs are tender enough to pull apart with your fingers.
• Meanwhile, prepare the barbecue sauce. Place the balsamic vinegar in a large nonreactive saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat and cook until reduced by a third. Add the remaining barbecue sauce ingredients with 1/4 cup water, bring back to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer until thick, 30 to 40 minutes. If the sauce starts to thicken too much, add a little water. The sauce should be highly seasoned; adjust to taste by adding vinegar, brown sugar or salt.
• Remove the ribs from the oven and let cool briefly, then open the foil, being careful of the escaping steam. Transfer the ribs to a baking sheet. Turn on the broiler or raise the oven to 450 degrees.
• Slather the ribs on both sides with the barbecue sauce. Broil the ribs until the sauce sizzles and browns, 2 to 4 minutes on each side. Alternatively, bake in the oven 8 to 12 minutes. Baste with the barbecue sauce and serve at once with any remaining sauce on the side.

TUSCAN RIBS

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with parchment-lined foil. Stir together oil, 4 teaspoons salt, 1 teaspoon pepper, paprika, fennel seeds, sage, thyme, and rosemary. Rub mixture all over ribs. Cover; let stand at least 1 hour, or refrigerate up to overnight.
• Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Roast ribs, uncovered, until meat is tender, 2 hours. (Ribs can be allowed to cool completely at this point and stored, covered, in refrigerator up to 3 days.) Switch oven to broil, with a rack 6 inches from heating element. Stir together vinegar and garlic; season with salt and pepper. Brush ribs with half of glaze. Broil until crisp, 1 to 2 minutes. Brush with remaining glaze, if desired. Cut into pieces and serve, alongside potato salad.

FO-SHO SHORT RIBS WITH BALSAMIC GLAZE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a large Dutch oven, over medium-high heat, cook bacon to render fat. Remove bacon and reserve as garnish for parsnips. Season ribs with salt and pepper. Sear all sides of ribs, in batches, ends included, and then remove. Add in vegetables, cook for 5 minutes, add flour and spices, cook for 3 minutes longer and deglaze pan with red wine. Put the ribs back into pot and add stock to cover 3/4 of the way up the ribs. Cover and cook in oven for 1 hour 30 minutes to 1 hour 45 minutes or until fork tender. Remove ribs to a baking dish and brush with Balsamic Glaze, cover with foil and keep warm in a preheated 250 degrees F oven. Strain and reduce broth by a third. (Broth to be served with Parsnip Puree.)
• In a small pot over medium heat, combine all ingredients. Whisk occasionally and reduce by one third.;
• In a large heavy bottom pot over medium heat, add in celery root, parsnip root, whole milk, garlic and thyme. Bring to a simmer and reduce heat. Simmer 5 to 7 minutes or until fork tender. Strain, reserving liquid. Discard thyme bundle. Place vegetables in food processor and pulse, adding reserved liquid as necessary, to desired consistency. Add butter and salt and pepper, to taste, and pulse. Garnish with bacon and fried onions. Serve with reduced broth from short ribs.

SWEET-AND-SOUR BALSAMIC-GLAZED SPARERIBS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 250°F and place each rack of ribs on a square of aluminum foil. Sprinkle the ribs generously with salt, add a few sprigs of thyme to each, and then wrap well. Place the rib packets on a cookie sheet and bake for 3 to 4 hours, until the ribs are extremely tender. Allow the ribs to cool slightly in their packets before opening.
• To make the glaze, combine all of the ingredients in a large pot on medium-low heat. Allow to simmer, stirring every so often, for a few hours, until the sauce is nice and thick. Set aside.
• To bring the ribs and glaze together, do the following. Turn on the broiler (if you don't have a broiler, get the oven up to 450°F). Cut the rib racks into individual ribs, place them on a foil-lined cookie sheet or broiler tray, and brush them aggressively with the glaze. Pop them under the broiler and watch them carefully: all that sugar makes them burn very easily! You want the glaze to fuse with the ribs; it takes 3 to 4 minutes. If you're cooking the ribs in the oven, do so just until the glaze begins to bubble, 4 to 5 minutes. Serve the ribs hot with lots of napkins-trust me, you'll need them.
