Short Ribs Sous Vide with Demi Glace, with Roasted Acorn Squash and roasted Brussels Sprouts
May 14, 2021 15:17:54 #
Short English Cut ribs, seasoned simply with salt and pepper, cooked Sous Vide for 48 hours @ 144°, then seared using a SearzAll propane torch. The goal was a reasonable bark while retaining as much pink as possible. No they are not rare, at least not at 144° and those who find red meat color uncomfortable because it looks like blood, well that's not what you are seeing - the red color is from a protein called myoglobin - which is deep red in color. It is not blood, but it does bring oxygen - that is carried in blood - to muscle tissue. But these were fork-tender and juicy - with the juice in the meat where it belongs, not leaking all over the place.

Looks excellent! A treatment of Brussels sprouts I've never seen before, and I'm a fan of the veg.

A succulent cut of beef properly cooked, fresh vegetables and a glass of red wine. Life has many rewards but gathering the family around the table to share good conversation and a delicious meal is a special time of day for every family. Well done as always, Gene.

Brush them with olive oil, season with salt and pepper and roast at 375° until lightly browned - we eat them with every meal during the winter - roasting them just concentrates their sweetness and intensifies their flavor. The sprouts on a stalk was a Trader Joe's thing.
