Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 325°F
  2. Bind each rib with cotton kitchen twine. Place the rosemary, thyme, and bay leaf between the two celery halves and bind with kitchen twine.
  3. Season the short ribs with 2 teaspoons of the salt and the pepper.
  4. Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven over a high flame until it smokes.
  5. In two batches, brown the short ribs well on both sides, about 3 minutes per side, pouring off all but 3 tablespoons of oil between batches.
  6. Remove the ribs and set aside when done.
  7. Lower the flame to medium, and add the carrots, onion, shallots, and garlic to the pot and saute for 5 minutes, until the onion is soft and light brown.
  8. Stir in the tomato paste and cook for 2 minutes.
  9. Add the flour and stir well to combine. Add the port, red wine, and the celery-herb bundle.
  10. Raise the flame to high and cook until the liquid is reduced by a third, about 20 minutes.
  11. Return the ribs to the pot (they will stack into two layers).
  12. Add the stock and the remaining 1 teaspoon of salt; if the stock doesn’t cover the ribs by at least 1 inch, add water up to that level.
  13. Bring to a gentle simmer, cover, transfer to the preheated oven, and cook for 3 hours. Visit the pot occasionally and stir the ribs, bringing the ones on the bottom up to the top - they’re done when the meat is fork tender and falling off the bone.
  14. Transfer the ribs to a large platter and remove the strings.
  15. Skim any fat from the surface of the sauce, and then strain through a sieve into a medium saucepan.
  16. Discard the solids.
  17. Over medium heat, bring the sauce to a strong simmer and reduce the liquid until slightly less then half (4 cups) remains, about 1 hour.
  18. Return the ribs to the pot, simmer for 10 minutes to reheat, and serve.
