afnáms

Afnáms, also known as Icelandic short ribs, are a traditional dish from Iceland, featuring tender, slow-cooked beef ribs. The term "afnáms" translates to "off the back" in Icelandic, referring to the ribs' position on the cow. The dish is typically prepared by seasoning the ribs with salt, pepper, and sometimes other herbs, then slow-cooking them in a pot with water, potatoes, and onions. The ribs are then removed and served with the cooking liquid, often accompanied by boiled potatoes and boiled onions. Afnáms are a popular dish in Icelandic cuisine, often served during holidays and special occasions. The dish is known for its rich, savory flavor and tender, fall-off-the-bone meat.
