• Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Season all sides of the short ribs with salt and pepper.
• Heat a heavy, oven-safe pot over high heat. Add in olive oil and allow to heat briefly. Sear short ribs in olive oil, about 1 minute per side, to render fat. Remove from pot and set aside.
• Add in onion and saute 3 to 5 minutes, until softened. Add in garlic and saute 1 minute more.
• Pour in beef broth, red wine (if using) and Worcestershire sauce. Bring to a simmer. Return short ribs to pan. Place a rosemary sprig on top.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Coat a Dutch oven with olive oil and bring to a high heat. Season the ribs with salt and brown in the hot oil. Remove from the pan and discard the excess oil.
• While the ribs are browning, puree the onion, fennel and garlic in the food processor to a coarse paste. After the ribs are browned and pan has been purged of excess oil, add the pureed vegetables and brown.
• Return the ribs to the pan and add the white wine, bay leaves, fennel seed, thyme and crushed red pepper flakes. Reduce the wine by half. Add the chicken stock, cover and place in the preheated oven. Cook the ribs for 2 hours or until they are very soft and almost falling off the bone. Check the ribs periodically to make sure everything is moving along nicely and to make sure the liquid hasn't reduced too much.
• Serve the spareribs over the Herb Spaetzle.
• What a rib!
• Bring a large pot of well salted water to a boil over medium heat.
• In a small bowl whisk together the eggs and milk until they are a homogeneous mixture.
• In a large bowl, add flour and make a hole in the flour. Add a pinch of salt and using a fork, gradually combine the milk/egg mixture with the flour. Mix until they are just combined. Stir in 1/4 cup of the herbs.
• Place the batter in a colander over the boiling water. Using a rubber spatula or a spaetzle maker, push the batter through a colander into the boiling water. Boil the spaetzle for 2 to 3 minutes or until firm. Drain the spaetzle and place in a medium bowl. Add some olive oil and the remaining 1/4 cup of herbs. Toss to coat evenly and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Tie the rosemary, bay leaves, and small bunch of parsley together with kitchen twine, making a bouquet garni. Puree garlic and onion in food processor. Next, brown the short ribs. You will probably have to do them in several batches. Heat olive oil in a very large ovenproof casserole over high heat until really hot, then add short ribs. Brown on all sides, cooking 1-2 min - utes per side. Transfer to a platter. When you've finished browning all the short ribs, pour off excess fat, then add the fennel and bacon to the pan. Turn heat down to medium-high. Cook until the bacon crisps up, stirring often. Transfer to platter. Add the onion and garlic puree to the pan and cook about 5 minutes. Add the red wine and, using a wooden spoon, deglaze the pan by scraping up any brown bits that have stuck to the bottom and sides. Add the port, the chicken broth, tomatoes, bouquet garni, allspice, salt, and pepper. Bring to a simmer. Add the ribs, fennel, and bacon. Cover the pot and put in the oven. Cook 2 1/2-3 hours until meat is falling off the bones and is very tender. Put ribs on serving platter, pour sauce over top, and sprinkle with chopped parsley. Serve with Polenta, Mashed Potatoes, or broad noodles, and a green salad.
