This plum and tangerine peel pork ribs recipe is super simple to season, even a novice can easily master! The sweet and sour taste of the plums and the richness of the tangerine peel, combined with the oyster sauce and dark soy sauce, locks in the savory flavor and color of the ribs. The ribs are stewed until the meat and bones are tender and almost crispy, and they fall off the bone with a light bite. The sauce coats each piece, and sprinkled with sesame seeds, the sour and sweet taste is appetizing, refreshing, and delicious with rice. This is a standout dish, so get ready now.
The coral-pink radish slices are translucent and juicy, their juices shimmering and clear. The initial crispness is refreshing, followed by a burst of sour and spicy flavors, mingled with the aroma of garlic. The subtle spiciness is tempered by a sweet aftertaste, making the food even more appetizing with every chew. Enjoy it with porridge for breakfast, instantly refreshing the light dish; with rice for lunch, it dispels the greasy, everyday air; as a dinner snack, it awakens tired taste buds; and as an appetizer at banquets, its vibrant presentation and crisp texture instantly capture the eye. It's a flavorful surprise that complements every meal, season after season.
Braised pork trotters with preserved plums is a classic Cantonese dish that makes your mouth water just looking at it! The pork trotters are stewed until they're incredibly tender and fall off the bone easily, with a slightly chewy skin that bursts with juice when you bite into them. The sweet and sour flavor of the preserved plums perfectly balances the richness of the meat. Each piece is coated in a thick sauce, savory with a refreshing aftertaste, making it not greasy at all. You'll want to suck every last bit off the bone! It's perfect with rice or as a snack. My family always fights over it; it's a true rice-eating machine, and you'll want to lick the sauce off your chopsticks afterward!
