Spare Ribs with Black Bean Sauce Recipe

Cut the spareribs crosswise into 1- to 2-inch sections. Set aside.

Combine black bean sauce, rice wine, cornstarch, ginger, garlic, black pepper, soy sauce, cooking oil, sesame oil, and sugar. Mix well.

Transfer spareribs and sauce into a shallow, heatproof pan that will fit inside steamer. Marinate in mixture at room temperature for 30 minutes.

Bring steamer water to a boil; turn heat to medium-high. Steam for 18 to 20 minutes until ribs are no longer pink. Make sure that you don't run out of water while steaming; replenish with additional water, if needed.

Serve with rice.
