Braised & Beautiful $85 SAT, MAY 28 2011 6:30 PM Add to Cart
If I had to choose my favorite cooking technique, the one I absolutely couldn’t do without, it would be braising. After all, this is the technique that gave us comfort food like pot roast. Braising can take a long time, but we’ve discovered some inside secrets to speed up the pace. Here are just a few - orange braised chicken with crisp prosciutto, beer braised sirloin tips with wild mushroom sauce, halibut braised in tomato fennel broth, braised short ribs with Chinese flavors (to die for) and an all time fave - osso bucco.
