Chinese Steamed Spareribs with Black Bean is a classic dim sum dish that I always order and never realized how easy it is to recreate at home! The spareribs are steamed till tender and are covered by the perfect savory black bean garlic sauce. Chinese Steamed Spareribs with Black Bean is easy to prepare and be a perfect dish to serve this holiday season!
Add ½ cup of baking soda to the pork and scrub the pork for 2-3 minutes, making sure that every piece of meat is washed. Rinse till the water is no longer cloudy, and the bones are clean. Drain and pat dry
Marinate the pork with oyster sauce, soy sauce, grated ginger, grated garlic, sesame oil, and fermented black beans for a minimum of 2 hours
After 2 hours, add in corn starch and mix, making sure every piece of pork is coated with the corn starch mixture.
Place taro at the bottom of the serving bowl and add spare ribs on top. Try not to have the spareribs stack on to of each other for even cooking.
Steam the spare ribs for 30 minutes or until pork is soft. Garnish with green onion and enjoy!
