Miso is the Japanese savory secret and it gives these marinated then grilled short ribs their umami boost.

2 1/2 pounds beef short ribs, well trimmed
1 1/2 tablespoon Japanese miso
3 tablespoons rice wine or dry sherry
3 tablespoons Japanese-style soy sauce
1 tablespoon distilled white vinegar
1 tablespoon sugar
2 teaspoons Asian sesame oil
teriyaki sauce
hot cooked noodles or rice
Have your butcher cut the short ribs flank-style into 1/4-inch thick slices (each slice should contain 3 cross cut rib bones).
Combine miso, mirin, soy sauce, vinegar, sugar and sesame oil. Place beef in self-sealing plastic bag, then add marinade, turn bag, and massage to coat. Refrigerate 4 hours.
Remove ribs from marinade and wipe off excess.
Grill over hot coals 1 to 1 1/2 minutes on each side or until seared. Serve hot with teriyaki sauce, over noodles or rice.

Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).
