Beef ribs baked in honey-mustard marinade

4 servings

160 minutes

Beef ribs baked in honey-mustard marinade are a true gastronomic delight infused with the aromas of sweet honey, spicy mustard, and Eastern narsharab sauce. The origins of such a marinade can be found in European and Middle Eastern cuisines, where the combination of sweet and spicy perfectly highlights the rich flavor of the meat. Honey gives the ribs a caramelized crust, while mustard makes them tender and juicy. Slow cooking at low temperatures allows the dish's full flavor potential to unfold, making the meat tender and almost melt-in-your-mouth. These ribs are served with grilled vegetables or fresh salads, as well as a glass of rich red wine. This dish is perfect for cozy family evenings or festive gatherings where it’s important to emphasize the moment's significance.
