STEAMED BLACK BEAN SPARERIBS



Steamed Black Bean Spareribs image

Steamed black bean spareribs (si zap zing pai gwat in Cantonese) are popular at dim sum restaurants but they are a dinnertime go-to in my family. With just a little marinating and simple steaming you have a tasty dish that is easy to round out with rice or noodles and blanched or stir-fried vegetables. (You can prepare them while the ribs cook.) Fermented black beans are the primary flavoring agent here, providing a unique savory saltiness. Pork sparerib tips come from the ends of spareribs that are butchered to yield St. Louis ribs. The ones sold in Asian markets tend to be about 1 inch thick, while the ones at many grocery stores are about 2 inches thick. If you use thinner rib tips, reduce the steaming to 15 minutes. If you can only find whole spareribs, ask the butcher to cut them crosswise into 2-inch-thick pieces.

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 pounds meaty pork sparerib tips, about 2 inches thick (see Headnote)
1 1/2 tablespoons light soy sauce
1 tablespoon Chinese fermented black beans, rinsed and roughly chopped
1 tablespoon Chinese cooking wine, such as Shaoxing
1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
Kosher salt and ground white pepper
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 tablespoon neutral oil, such as vegetable or canola
1 small red chile, such as Fresno, or mini bell pepper, thinly sliced crosswise
1 scallion, thinly sliced on the diagonal

Steps:

  • If the sparerib tips come in a slab, cut them into individual ribs.
  • Toss together the ribs, light soy sauce, fermented black beans, cooking wine, sugar, sesame oil, garlic, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon white pepper in a large bowl. Let marinate at room temperature for at least 30 minutes and up to 2 hours.
  • When the ribs are almost ready, prepare a steamer setup with a rack in a large pot or wok (see Cook's Note). Add enough water to the pot so it reaches just below the rack, cover the pot and bring to a boil.
  • Add the cornstarch and oil to the ribs and mix well. Place the ribs in a single layer on a large heatproof rimmed plate or shallow bowl that fits inside the pot. Sprinkle the ribs with the chiles.
  • Place the plate on the rack in the pot, cover and steam until the ribs are opaque on the exterior and cooked through, 25 to 28 minutes (see Cook's Note). Garnish with the scallions and carefully remove the plate from the pot using tongs or oven mitts.

STEAMED SPARERIBS WITH BLACK BEAN SAUCE



Steamed Spareribs With Black Bean Sauce image

I have prepared this recipe from the Frugal Gourmet's "Cooking Three Ancient Cuisines" for many years. I have adapted the recipe a bit for my own tastes, of course. Look for the black beans in plastic bags in an asian market or health food store. These are not the canned black beans used in southwest cuisine, they are fermented soy beans leftover from making soy sauce. I serve this as one course in a chinese meal. It simplifies things when you don't have too many stir fry dishes to prepare at the same time.

Time 55m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 1/2 lbs pork spareribs, cut into serving size strips
3 slices fresh ginger, minced
3 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons preserved black beans, rinsed
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon sugar
4 stalks green onions, sliced diagonally in 1-inch pieces
1/2 cup sliced water chestnuts
1 teaspoon cornstarch
2 cups water or 2 cups soup stock
1 tablespoon peanut oil
1/2 teaspoon sesame seed oil
1/2 teaspoon sesame seeds, toasted

Steps:

  • Mash beans, ginger and garlic.
  • Heat peanut oil in wok or frying pan.

  • Just before serving, add sesame seed oil and mix. Top with seeds.

Tips:

  • To make the ribs more flavorful, marinate them in the black bean sauce for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
  • If you don't have a steamer, you can boil the ribs in a large pot of water for about 1 hour, or until they are tender.
  • Serve the ribs with steamed rice, noodles, or your favorite side dish.
  • For a spicier dish, add a teaspoon or two of chili sauce or chili powder to the black bean sauce.
  • If you want a thicker sauce, add a cornstarch slurry (equal parts cornstarch and water) to the sauce and cook until it thickens.

Conclusion:

Spareribs in black bean sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The ribs are tender and flavorful, and the sauce is rich and savory. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
