Number of People 6
List of Ingredients 4 bone-in short ribs (2 inches thick, 2 lbs. total)

coarse salt and freshly ground pepper

2 tsp. cornstarch

3 T extra-virgin olive oil

8 oz. white button mushrooms, quartered

3 carrots, 2 finely chopped and 1 cut into 3/4-inch pieces

3 shallots, minced

2 celery stalks, coarsely chopped

2 strips bacon, thinly sliced crosswise

1 T tomato paste

2 thyme sprigs

1 dried bay leaf

1 cup dry red wine, such as Burgundy

8 cups low-sodium beef broth

2 cups water



12 oz. egg noodles

2 T unsalted butter

2 T fresh flat-leaf parsley
Description Season ribs with 1/2 tsp. salt and some pepper.  Coat with cornstarch.  Heat oil in a large heavy pot (preferably enameled cast iron) over medium-high heat.  Lightly brown ribs on all sides, about 6 minutes.  Transfer to a plate.



Add mushrooms to pot.  Cook until browned, about 4 minutes.  Transfer to a bowl; add cubed carrot.



Add shallots, celery, bacon and chopped carrots to pot.  Cook until caramelized, about 6 minutes.  Stir in tomato paste.



Return ribs with plate juices to pot.  Add thyme and bay leaf.  Raise heat to high.  Add wine.  Cook, scraping up brown bits with a wooden spoon, until slightly reduced, about 1 minute.  Add stock and water.  Bring to a boil.  Reduce heat and simmer, partially covered, until beef is tender, 2 to 2-1/2 hours.



Remove ribs.  Separate meat from bones; discard bones.  Cut meat into bite-size pieces; return to pot.  Add reserved mushroom-carrot mixture.  Bring to a simmer; cook until cubed carrots are tender.  Season with salt.



Toss noodles with butter and parsley.  Let each person put noodles in their dish and ladle soup over top.
