Cooking tips 💡

  • If using fresh refrigerated meat, there's no need to soak out blood; but if frozen or older, soaking in water helps clean it.
  • Thoroughly rinsing the boiled meat under water removes most of the characteristic gamey smell of spare ribs.
  • If you only reduce the sauce over high heat with the lid off, the moisture evaporates too quickly and only the surface becomes salty; always cook covered to let the seasoning penetrate evenly.
