Cooking Tips

• For extra flavor, marinate the pork ribs overnight in the refrigerator.
• If you prefer spicier ribs, add some chili flakes or Sriracha sauce to the marinade.
• To achieve a more caramelized glaze, broil the ribs for a few minutes at the end of cooking.
• Make sure to let the ribs rest before serving to allow the juices to redistribute and the meat to become even more tender.

Storage and Serving

• Leftover ribs can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
• To reheat, place the ribs in a baking dish, cover with foil, and heat in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 15-20 minutes, or until heated through.
• Serve the ribs as a main dish with steamed rice or noodles, or as an appetizer with a side of dipping sauce.
• Garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds for added flavor and presentation.
