Tips for making spare ribs

1. Pork should not be soaked in water for a long time; when cutting fat, you can dip the fat in cold water first, then put it on the chopping board, and sprinkle some cold water while cutting. This way, cutting will save effort, the fat will not slide, and it will not easily stick to the chopping board.

2. Do not wash pork with hot water before cooking, because pork contains a substance called myofibril, which is easily soluble in water above 15 degrees Celsius. If it is soaked in hot water, a lot of nutrients will be lost and the taste will also be poor.

3. Pork should be cooked thoroughly because pork sometimes contains parasites. If it is eaten raw or not fully cooked, hookworms may parasitize in the liver or brain.
