Use one whole rack of pork ribs for the recipe. Look for ribs with 35-40% fat content.
This recipe calls for slow cooking the ribs, both in the oven and on the stove top, so having enough fat on the bone will ensure that the ribs stay nice and moist instead of drying out.

And don’t worry!
If you dislike fatty meat, the finished ribs won’t be like that. The fat slowly renders and add flavor to the dish.
To prep the pork, you’ll want to remove the connective tissue on the back of the ribs. This membrane helps keep all the ribs intact.
Flip the ribs over and look for a small flap of skin on the thickest side edge. Gently but firmly pull it back and the entire membrane should come off in one piece.
Then, you can cut the ribs down to individual pieces! Removing the membrane makes this much easier.
Use a heavy bottom pan that can go from stovetop to oven.

I use this carbon steel round roaster from Smithey. Or, something like this stainless steel pan with taller sides works well too.
The key is to use a wide bottom pan that’s roomy enough to fit all the ribs in one layer, without overlapping. The pan doesn’t need a lid.
As Gordon Ramsay says, you want all the ribs to tuck in nicely next to each other like “matchsticks”!
Star anise is a common ingredient in Chinese cooking. It’s a pretty, star shaped spice native to China and has a fragrant, slightly floral taste.
Typically any Chinese recipe involving slow cooking, stewing or braising meat will incorporate 1 to 2 cloves of star anise. The spice adds more depth to the braise, a touch of sweetness, and also intensifies the flavor of the meat.
Sichuan peppercorn adds a nice zing to the dish. If you don’t like spice, you can skip this and just use chili flakes.
This is one of those recipes that doesn’t really have exact measurements for the braising liquid.
Start with small amounts of soy sauce, vinegar, rice wine and honey and then taste frequently. You can always add more!

To braise the ribs, use stock or water.
Add just enough liquid to reach the tops of the ribs. Too much liquid will dilute the flavor of the sauces and spices and also won’t reduce easily on the stove.
Midway through the cooking, you can check on the ribs in the oven. Flip the ribs over to evenly braise on both sides and add more stock, if necessary.
This is one of those dishes that tastes even better the next day.
Store any leftovers in the fridge – the flavor of the sauce will keep developing and the ribs will taste even better as leftovers! I usually eat it with rice and a side of Asian greens, like tatsoi, bok choy or chijimisai.
