    Place ribs back in pan, into the vegetables. Add wine and stock. Cover with foil, then lid. Cook 3 hours.

    Strain sauce and reduce until thick, about 10 minutes. Put ribs back in sauce and heat through. If using as an appetizer:remove meat from bones and shred (discard tough connective tissue). scoop meat onto spoons, top with a small dollop of Horseradish crème. Arrange in a circle :)
