Dim Sum Ribs - How to Make Authentic Steamed Spare Ribs with Black Bean (豉汁蒸排骨) | Chinese Cooking Demystified

Dim Sum-style spare ribs are always a favorite. The big question though: how do the restaurants achieve that texture with that white color?

The answer's a process of soaking and rinsing with alkaline water that actually takes place in a washing machine at the restaurants. We're mimicking that authentic Cantonese recipe here using baked baking soda and the tap.

We're Steph and Chris - a food-obsessed couple that lives in Shenzhen, China. Steph is from Guangzhou and loves cooking food from throughout China - you'll usually be watching her behind the wok. Chris is a long-term expat from America that's been living in China and loving it for the last nine years - you'll be listening to his explanations and recipe details, and doing some cooking at times as well.

This channel is all about learning how to cook the same taste that you'd get in China. Our goal for each video is to give you a recipe that would at least get you close to what's made by some of our favorite restaurants here. Because of that, our recipes are no-holds-barred Chinese when it comes to style and ingredients - but feel free to ask for tips about adaptations and sourcing too!
