Lucques Braised Short Ribs

Lucques Braised Short Ribs | Bijouxs Little Jewels

Memories of Sunday Suppers at Lucques bring a favorite recipe from the beloved restaurant, Lucques Braised Short Ribs–another Little Jewel from the Collection.

SUNDAY SUPPERS AT LUCQUES

LA had some storied restaurants and Lucques was one of my favorites. Lucques opened in 1998 and sadly it shuttered on May 6, 2020, my birthday. The Sunday Suppers were legendary, I still have a menu from a 2009 Sunday Supper. A group of friends and I dined and savored the dinner. Truly a fabulous place. Thankfully, Suzanne Goin published a cookbook that contains recipes from the restaurant.

LUCQUES COOKBOOK

There are so many recipes, I cannot call out just one. Here is a favorite, a very popular menu item, Lucques Braised Beef Short Ribs, they had remained a permeant fixture on the menu.

BRAISED BEEF SHORT RIBS

I have been making this since day one of purchasing the cookbook. It takes a bit of planning but is such a satisfying dish.  I have jiggled with the recipe a bit. Seared short ribs are braised in a broth with wine, balsamic vinegar and baby pearl onions. The ribs are fall-apart tender. I love serving them with Celery Root Purée that I serve with my Lamb Shanks with Garlic Confit. Below is a menu from a Fall Harvest Menu for 6 Cheers!
