Preparation

  1. Place all ingredients except for cabbage in a heavy stockpot. 
  2. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer 4-5 hours. 
  3. Remove short ribs and set aside. Add wedges of cabbage and simmer for 15 minutes. 
  4. To serve, place one short rib on top of your favorite style of mashed potatoes with a cabbage wedge beside it. 
  5. Ladle braising liquid over the top and serve.
  6. Or, in the traditional Portuguese way of serving sopas, or soup, you may serve the short rib on top of a thick slice of crusty bread, that way you can enjoy every bit of the flavorsome, long-simmered stock.
