Author's Notes

Let spare ribs come to room temperature before steaming. Meat gets tough when cooked cold, so let the ribs rest out in the fridge for at least 30 minutes before steaming.

Mixing in some corn starch to marinade helps to protect the spare ribs from powerful steam heat by forming a protective film around the meat.
Cooking InstructionsHide images
step 1
Cut the Spare Ribs (1.1 lb) into bite-size pieces and place them in a bowl.
step 2
Mix bite-size spare rib pieces with some Corn Starch (1 Tbsp) and rinse clean for 1-2 minutes with running water. Then pat dry the spare ribs in thick paper towels.
step 3
Prepare the ingredients to marinate the spare ribs. Mix Hoisin Sauce (1 Tbsp) and Fermented Bean Curd (1/2 Tbsp) into the spare ribs. Add in Shaoxing Cooking Wine (1 Tbsp) and finally Corn Starch (1 tsp). With your hand, slowly and gently massage the ribs around for about 1 minute to evenly distribute all the flavors.
step 4
Cover with cling wrap and leave to marinate for 1 hour.
step 5
Before we steam the marinated spare rib, prepare the bamboo steamer. Line an aluminum foil over the bottom and side of a medium-size bamboo steamer.
step 6
Place marinated spare ribs into a lined bamboo steamer. Top with Fresh Ginger (2 1/2 Tbsp) and Red Chili Pepper (1).
step 7
Bring water to a rolling boil in a wok or steamer. Be sure to add enough water.
step 8
Place spare ribs in the steamer. Cover and steam the spare ribs on high heat for about 30 minutes or until cooked. Test for doneness with a chopstick.
step 9
Remove from steamer and garnish with Spring Onion (1 stalk), extra ginger strips, and chopped chilies. Serve immediately while hot.
