REAL SIMPLE SLOW-COOKER ASIAN SHORT RIBS
This is another of Real Simple's wonderful recipes ! The taste was so good, and I am looking forward to trying it again. Maybe next time with a different cut of beef. Recipe came together easy and I could not believe how wonderful the house smelled while this was cooking ! The brown sugar I used was a blend from Splenda and the rice vinegar I have is "flavored". NOTE: I keep fresh ginger in the freezer so that I will have it ready when I find a recipe that calls for it - it grates easily and then goes right back in the freezer for next time.

Add a little of the liquid from the bottom of the slow-cooker to the mixture and slowly whisk into the cooking liquid. Whisk until thickened and stir in sesame oil.

Tips:
- Choose the right cut of short ribs: Look for short ribs that are well-marbled with fat, as this will help keep them moist during the cooking process.
- Brown the short ribs before braising: This will help develop flavor and color.
- Use a flavorful braising liquid: The braising liquid is what will give the short ribs their flavor, so be sure to use a liquid that is packed with flavor. Some good options include beef broth, red wine, soy sauce, and rice vinegar.
- Cook the short ribs until they are fall-off-the-bone tender: This will typically take at least 2 hours, but it may take longer depending on the cut of short ribs you are using.
- Serve the short ribs with your favorite sides: Some good options include mashed potatoes, rice, or roasted vegetables.
