The short ribs are slowly braised with easy-to-find dried porcini mushrooms (for real, ask someone at the fancy grocery store and they'll find them for you!) until they turn into a triumph of fork-tender goodness. I love these short ribs over mashed potatoes, but the rich tomato and mushroom gravy is fantastic over soft polenta as well. I really hope you give this cool weather wonder a try.

Ingredients

½ cup dried porcini mushrooms
½ cup water
2 ½ pounds beef short ribs
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 onion, sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 cups beef broth
1 cup tomato sauce
1 teaspoon dried rosemary
½ teaspoon salt
1 pinch cayenne pepper
1 bay leaf

Directions

Combine mushrooms and water in a bowl; soak until mushrooms are rehydrated, about 30 minutes. Drain mushrooms and reserve liquid; dice mushrooms.
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
Season short ribs all over with salt and black pepper.
Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook short ribs in hot oil until browned on all sides, 7 to 12 minutes. Transfer ribs to a Dutch oven.
Return skillet to heat and saute onion with a pinch of salt in hot pan until softened, about 3 minutes. Add garlic and saute until fragrant, about 1 minute more. Stir mushrooms into onion mixture.
Pour reserved mushroom liquid into skillet and bring to a boil while scraping the browned bits of food off of the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Stir beef broth, tomato sauce, rosemary, 1/2 teaspoon salt, cayenne pepper, and bay leaf into onion mixture.
Pour tomato mixture over short ribs into Dutch oven and cover Dutch oven with a lid.
Cook short ribs in the preheated oven until short ribs are fork-tender, about 2 hours.
