Balthazar's Short Ribs, part one

Deep breath - let's try to make Balthazar's recipe for braised short ribs. Start the clock...30 minutes of prep (get that mise en place in place!); 15 minutes to brown the ribs, ten minutes of sauteing, and 20 minutes of reducing the Cabernet/Madiera/tomato paste/beef juices mixture. Let cool, then put in the 'fridge to marinate overnight. Stay tuned for part two, and the results!
