It may be because the steaming time is not enough. To make steamed ribs, you must first marinate the ribs with cooking wine, starch and other seasonings, steam over medium heat and water for 20 minutes, and then simmer for a while after turning off the heat. Steamed pork ribs is a very common dish. Some people always feel that they are chewy and the meat is chewy after making it. In fact, this is mostly because the steaming time is not enough.

If we want to make delicious steamed ribs, we must first choose fresh ribs. Ribs that have been frozen in the refrigerator will have a slightly inferior texture. We first soak the ribs in clean water for half an hour, changing the water twice in the middle, so that the blood and water in the ribs can be soaked out and the meaty smell can be removed. Remove excess water from the soaked ribs, add starch, ginger slices, pepper, salt, oyster sauce, cooking wine, and cooking oil and marinate for 20 minutes. If we want the ribs to be more flavorful, we can increase the marinating time to two hours.

Remember not to marinate for too long, because steamed spareribs capture the flavor of the meat in the ribs, and marinating for too long will cause the flavor of the meat to fade. Cut the onions into chopped green onions, and put a layer of your favorite vegetables on the bottom of the plate, such as mung bean sprouts, enoki mushrooms, etc. This can make the steamed pork ribs less greasy and taste lighter. Place the marinated ribs directly on the bean sprouts and sprinkle with a small handful of shredded ginger. Boil water in a pot. After the water boils, put the ribs into the pot and steam them over high heat for 20 minutes. If you want them to be softer, you can steam them for 30-50 minutes.

After steaming, do not open the lid immediately. Turn off the heat and simmer for about 3 to 5 minutes. After steaming, sprinkle a small handful of chopped green onions on top of the pork ribs. Heat the oil in the pan until it smokes. Pour it directly on top of the chopped green onions to stimulate the aroma. Finally, add two tablespoons of steamed fish and black beans. If you like spicy food, sprinkle some chili powder. The steamed pork ribs made in this way are very tender and full of flavor when you bite them. Because there are vegetables underneath, it doesn't feel greasy at all, and the preparation method is also very simple.
