Notes

When browning the short ribs, ensure that the pot is hot enough to create a good sear, which will add depth of flavor to the dish. If miso paste is new to you, start with a small amount and adjust to your taste preference. Additionally, roasting the carrots separately helps them retain their sweetness and texture, complementing the savory short ribs perfectly.
