Start by giving the short ribs a quick soak. Place the ribs in a large bowl and cover with cold tap water. Let them soak for about 10 minutes to help loosen and remove any bone fragments or debris that may have been left over from the cutting process. After soaking, rinse the ribs thoroughly under running water and drain well
