Pat the short ribs dry with paper towel, then season generously with salt and pepper. Brown the beef ribs on all sides in the hot oil. Add the onion, carrot, celery and garlic to the hot pot and cook, stirring often, until the vegetables are browned and the onions are soft, about 10 minutes.

Nestle the short ribs in the simmering mixture, then cover the pot with the lid slightly ajar. Transfer to the oven and cook for 3-4 hours, until the meat is very tender and falling off the bone. Once the beef is fully cooked and tender, stir the parsley into the braising liquid and serve right away with polenta or risotto. Directions: Preheat your oven to 325F.

Directions: Squeeze the orange pulp over a large bowl to extract all the juices. Whisk in the olive oil and season to taste with salt and pepper to make a vinaigrette. Add the orange, radish and fennel to the bowl and toss well to combine. Place a handful of arugula on 2 plates, then top with a generous amount of the fennel-orange mixture. Add some more freshly cracked pepper and another sprinkle of sea salt and enjoy right away.

Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil and place in the oven. Cook until pork is fork tender, about 3 1/2 hours. Using tongs, remove the orange peel, cinnamon stick and bay leaves from the pork.
