Prepare the pork
For pork ribs, use a knife to cut them into pieces about 10cm long, then soak them in diluted salt water for 30 minutes to remove impurities.
Next, put the ribs in a pot, add water and boil for 30 minutes, then add shallots for fragrance. After that, use a ladle to take the ribs out and place them in a basket to drain.
Effective ways to remove the smell from pork ribs- Remove the smell by blanching in boiling water: After cleaning, put the ribs and water in the pot so that the water just covers the ribs. Then, boil for about 2 – 3 minutes, then take the ribs out and rinse with water.
- Remove the smell by soaking in salt water: Just soak the cleaned ribs in diluted salt water for about 10 – 15 minutes, then rinse with water. You can add a few crushed ginger slices and a few drops of white wine to the salt water.
- Remove the smell with dried onion, ginger, lemongrass, white wine, vinegar: Just add one of the above ingredients to the boiling water, then blanch the ribs in this water for about 2 – 3 minutes.
