Main Ingredients- Pork spare ribs 600g
- 1/2 Onion
- 1 Pear juice pouch (approx. 100ml)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, to ensure freshness and remove any gamey odor, soak the pork ribs in cold water for at least 1 hour to thoroughly drain out the blood. Removing the blood well reduces the meat’s odor and results in a cleaner taste.
Step 2
After draining the blood, carefully cut the ribs between the bones with a knife. This helps the sauce penetrate the meat better and makes cooking more convenient. Soaking them again to remove blood after cutting is also a good idea.
Step 3
To remove impurities and tenderize the meat, fill a pot with enough water to cover the ribs. Add green onions and mirin, which are effective in removing odors, and boil for 10 minutes. Skim off any foam or impurities that rise to the surface during boiling. It’s important to boil until the water is no longer bloody.
Step 4
While the ribs are boiling, prepare the delicious sauce. Finely slice or mince half an onion, and have your soy sauce and pear juice pouch ready. Pear juice helps to tenderize the meat and adds a touch of sweetness.
Step 5
For a smoother and more evenly blended sauce, use a blender. Place the sliced onion, soy sauce, and pear juice into the blender and puree until smooth. This technique allows the sauce to penetrate the meat better, enhancing the flavor. (If you don’t have a blender, you can use the sliced onion as is.)
Step 6
Carefully remove the pork ribs from the boiling water after the first boil.
Step 7
Rinse the removed ribs thoroughly under cold running water to eliminate any remaining impurities or grease on the surface. This step will result in a clearer braising liquid.
Step 8
Place the rinsed ribs back into the pot and add 1 cup (approx. 200ml) of water. This water will help the sauce reduce and coat the meat with flavor.
Step 9
Pour the blended sauce ingredients (soy sauce, pear juice, onion) into the pot. Stir everything to combine, then bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Boiling at high heat initially helps to develop the flavors properly.
Step 10
Simmer the ribs in the sauce over high heat for about 30 minutes, allowing them to absorb the flavors. Stir occasionally to prevent the sauce from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
Step 11
Once the sauce begins to reduce and thicken, lower the heat to medium-low or low. Continue to simmer gently, being careful not to burn the sauce.
Step 12
When the sauce has almost fully reduced to your desired consistency, add 2 tablespoons of oligosaccharide and stir while simmering for about 1 more minute. The oligosaccharide will add a glossy finish and a subtle sweetness, enhancing the overall dish. Once the sauce clings to the ribs, it’s done!
Step 13
Arrange the finished pork ribs attractively on a serving plate and sprinkle with sesame seeds for a final touch. Sesame seeds add a nutty aroma and visual appeal. Enjoy with a side of warm rice!
