    4      pounds        beef short ribs -- sliced
                         - slice across bone 1-inch thick -
    8      cups          water
    1 1/2  cups          water
    2      large         onions -- coarsely chopped
    3                    green bell peppers -- cored
                         - seeded and coarsely chopped -
    4      stalks        celery -- coarsely chopped
    1      tablespoon    salt
    1      teaspoon      salt
    1      tablespoon    black pepper -- freshly ground
      3/4  cup           all-purpose flour
 
 1)  Wash the short ribs and pat them dry with paper towels.  Place the short
 ribs, 8 cups of water, onions, green peppers, celery, salt, and pepper in a
 heavy 6-quart pot.  Heat over medium-high heat until boiling.  Reduce the
 heat to simmering and simmer until the short ribs are tender, about 1 1/2 to
 2 hours.  Remove the short ribs to a bowl and keep warm.
