After buying the ribs home, don't rush to the pot, but clean the ribs first, and clean the impurities and congestion on the surface of the ribs with flowing water, which will help to remove the fishy smell of the ribs.

Step 2: soak

After the ribs are washed with flowing water, they should be soaked for a period of time to soak out all the impurities inside, so that the ribs cooked later will not have a fishy smell.

Be sure to use warm water when soaking. Cold water can easily breed bacteria, and hot water can shrink the meat quality of ribs, so it is best to use warm water of 35-40 degrees to soak for half an hour.

3. drowning

Even after soaking, there are still many impurities in the ribs, so we have to blanch the ribs, which can remove the impurities in the ribs.

Pour proper water into the pot, and then put the ribs directly into the pot. Don't wait until the water is hot to avoid meat shrinkage after the ribs come into contact with hot water.

When blanching, add onions, ginger, cooking wine, etc. in the water to deodorize the ribs. If the deodorization is done well, the ribs can be more delicious.

When blanching, there will be a lot of floating foam on the surface of the water. We'd better skim off the floating foam to avoid secondary pollution to the ribs.

When there is not much floating foam in the pot, it means that the blanching is good. Take the ribs out of the pot. At this time, some floating foam may remain on the surface of the ribs. We can wash the ribs with warm water to clean the impurities on the surface.

4. Adjust the sauce

Whether the sweet and sour pork ribs are delicious or not, besides removing the fishy smell from the ribs, it is also very important to adjust the sweet and sour juice. Only when the sweet and sour juice is well adjusted can the sweet and sour pork ribs be more delicious. So, do you know what the ratio of universal sweet and sour juice is?

In fact, the proportion of sweet and sour juice is very simple, that is, 1 spoon oyster sauce, half spoon soy sauce, half spoon salt, 1 spoon balsamic vinegar and 1 spoon sugar are mixed evenly, and then appropriate water is added, so that the sweet and sour juice is perfect.

5, stir-fried ribs

After doing this well, we can start frying pork ribs. There are two methods for sweet and sour pork ribs. One is to dip the pork ribs in flour, fry them in oil until golden, and then stir-fry them in sweet and sour juice.

But it wastes oil, so if you make your own ribs at home, you can use the following non-frying method.

First, pour more oil into the pot, then add the rock sugar, wait until all the rock sugar melts and turns reddish brown, and then pour the ribs into the pot to fry the sugar color.

Wait until the surface of the ribs is covered with syrup, and add water to the pot. Here, you must use boiling water to avoid the ribs from alternating cold and hot, and the meat will shrink. You don't need to pour too much, just slightly skip the ribs.

Then pour in the sweet and sour juice we just mixed. If you have lemon at home, you can put lemon slices in it.

After the fire comes to a boil, turn off the fire and stew for 40 minutes. When stewing, it is best to open the lid from time to time and stir it slightly to prevent the ribs from burning.

After 40 minutes, the juice is collected by fire, and when the soup becomes sticky, it can be cooked. After cooking, sprinkle some sesame seeds, and the soft ribs are finished. I hope my answer will help you, and I wish you a happy life!
