Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Place the short ribs on a sheet pan, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and roast for 15 minutes. Remove from the oven. Reduce the oven temperature to 300 degrees F.
- Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large Dutch oven and add the fennel, leek, onion, celery and carrots and cook over medium-low heat for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the garlic and cook for another 2 minutes. Add the tomato paste and wine, bring to a boil and cook over high heat until the liquid is reduced by half, about 10 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Tie the rosemary and thyme together with kitchen twine and add to the pot.
- Place the roasted ribs on top of the vegetables in the Dutch oven and add the brown sugar and beef stock. Bring to a simmer over high heat. Cover the Dutch oven and bake for 2 hours or until the meat is very tender.
- Carefully remove the short ribs from the pot and set aside. Discard the herbs and skim the excess fat. Cook the vegetables and sauce over medium heat for 20 minutes, until reduced. Put the ribs back into the pot and heat through. Serve with the vegetables and sauce.
TSIMMES (BEEF, CARROT AND SWEET POTATO STEW)
Tsimmes is a medieval German Jewish holiday beef stew that spread with the Jews to Eastern Europe. It was originally made with carrots and turnips, then when potatoes came to the Old World, they were added. When the dish came to the New World, sweet potatoes often replaces the white potatoes. Now I've tweaked it to my taste: I substitute the yellow yams or sweet potatoes with the white Japanese sweet potatoes that I love. I use flanken, a cut of short ribs found at kosher butchers, but any cut of short ribs will do, as will beef stew meat. I keep the bones in for flavor - and add a bay leaf for the same reason - and, rather than skimming the fat as it cooks, I simply put the stew pot in the refrigerator overnight so I can easily remove the hardened fat the next day. (A generation or two before me, cooks would have saved that fat for cooking and baking.) Instead of adding a little matzo meal to thicken the broth, I find no need for that, especially if I reduce the sauce a little before serving. I add pitted prunes, which are sweet enough to eliminate the need for brown sugar or honey and, at the end, I add parsley for color.

Steps:
- A day before serving, heat the oven to 350 degrees.
- Season the meat with 1 tablespoon salt and 1 1/2 teaspoons pepper.
- Put the meat and the bay leaf in a Dutch oven or other large, heavy pot, and add enough water to cover (about 8 cups). Bake, covered, for about an hour, then remove from heat, let cool and refrigerate overnight.
- The next day, the fat will have congealed on top; using a slotted spoon, remove and discard the layer of fat.
- Add the sweet potatoes, onions, carrots and prunes to the meat, and stir to combine. Bake, covered, for another hour, then remove the lid and cook until the potatoes are cooked, the meat is tender and the water is reduced, another 30 minutes to 1 hour. Season to taste. If there is more broth than you'd like, ladle some out and save for another use. Sprinkle with parsley just before serving.

Tips:
- Select high-quality short ribs for the best flavor and texture. Look for ribs that are well-marbled with fat and have a good amount of meat on them.
- Browning the short ribs before braising them adds a rich, caramelized flavor. Make sure to brown the ribs in small batches to avoid overcrowding the pan and steaming the meat.
- Use a variety of vegetables in the braising liquid to add flavor and depth to the dish. Carrots, celery, onions, and garlic are all classic choices, but you can also add other vegetables such as parsnips, turnips, or rutabagas.
- Season the braising liquid with a variety of herbs and spices. Common choices include thyme, rosemary, paprika, and bay leaves. You can also add a splash of red wine or beer for extra flavor.
- Braising the short ribs low and slow allows the meat to become tender and fall off the bone. Cook the ribs for at least 2 hours or until the meat is very tender.
- Serve the short ribs with a variety of sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple salad.
