Braised Shortribs With Roasted Ribsteak And Horseradish-d

Prior to our faith in the pardoning grace of the cross, the law ultimately could only be a condemnation code specifying the reasons for our death penalty. Now that Christ has paid that penalty, however, the Law is a map of blessing showing how those God has made right with Himself can further experience His love, bring honor to the One they love, and share His love with others. Understanding that the Law no longer condemns but guides us to spiritual safety, worship and fellowship makes its standards a delight, and indicates why antinomianism shackles God’s people to unhappiness. Denying people access to God’s path of spiritual safety is a contradiction of grace.

INSTRUCTIONS

Combine all ingredients and marinate the shortribs for 24 hours,
turning 2 or 3 times. Remove the ribs from marinade. Sear in 1 ounce
olive oil on the 3 sides without the bone. Transfer the shortribs and
marinade to a suitable size baking dish and add the veal stock to
cover the meat. Cover with aluminum foil and bake in a 325 degree  oven
for 3 to 3 1/2 hours or until the meat is tender. Remove the  meat from
the liquid and strain the sauce, discarding the solids.  Reduce the
liquid by one third until thickened to a sauce  consistency. Hold warm.
CrÃ¨me fraiche with horseradish: Pulse the  horseradish in a bar
blender and add the crÃ¨me fraiche. Let steep  overnight. The next day,
pass through a chinois, season with salt and  pepper. Discard solids.
In a small mixing bowl, combine the crÃ¨me  fraiche with a few drops of
the lemon juice. Add the frissee and mix  well, season with salt and
pepper. For the Ribsteak: Season the steak  with salt and pepper. Sear
in a hot sautÃ© pan in the olive oil for  30 seconds on each of the
four sides, until well browned but rare in  the middle. Transfer to a
wire rack to rest the meat. For the Root  Vegetables: Cook the
vegetables over medium heat in the olive oil,  adding the carrots and
turnips first, zucchini last. Add the thyme  and garlic and cook until
the vegetables are lightly caramelized.  Remove garlic and thyme and
hold warm. Assembly: Slice the ribsteak  into fourteen open slices,
seven for each plate. Put one shortrib on  each plate, discarding any
excess fat. Divide the frissee salad  between the two plates, and place
between the two meats. Sprinkle the  root vegetables over the ribs.
Sauce both plates using the reduced  braising liquid. This recipe
yields 2 servings.  Source: "CHEF DU JOUR - (Show # DJ-9556) - from the
