Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 lbs Pork spare ribs
- 4 tbsp Soy sauce
- 3 tbsp Hoisin sauce
- 2 tbsp Shaoxing wine (or dry sherry)
- 2 tbsp Honey
- 1 tbsp Sesame oil
- 3 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp Ginger, grated
- 1 tsp Five-spice powder
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 2 stalks Scallions, chopped (for garnish)
- 1 tbsp Sesame seeds (for garnish)
Instructions
Rinse the pork ribs under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Use a sharp knife to remove the membrane on the back of the ribs if it’s still attached.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, Shaoxing wine, honey, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, five-spice powder, salt, and pepper. Whisk until smooth to create the marinade.
Place the ribs into a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the ribs, ensuring they are evenly coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight for maximum flavor.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack on top. Lightly grease the rack with oil.
Remove the ribs from the marinade and allow any excess marinade to drip off. Set the used marinade aside as it will be used for basting later.
Arrange the ribs on the prepared rack in a single layer. Cover them loosely with another sheet of foil to prevent them from drying out.
Bake the ribs in the preheated oven for 1 hour. Halfway through, baste the ribs with the reserved marinade to keep them moist and flavorful.
After 1 hour, remove the top foil and increase the oven temperature to 400°F (200°C). Continue baking for an additional 20-30 minutes, basting every 10 minutes, until the ribs are deeply caramelized and sticky.
Remove the ribs from the oven and let them rest for 5 minutes. Slice the ribs into individual pieces and transfer them to a serving platter.
Garnish the ribs with chopped scallions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds. Serve immediately with steamed rice or your favorite side dishes.
