About Spare ribs steam

Spare Ribs Steam is a popular dish rooted in Cantonese cuisine, commonly found in dim sum offerings. It features pork spare ribs, often marinated in a savory blend of soy sauce, fermented black beans, garlic, and sometimes chili for added heat. The ribs are steamed until tender, allowing the flavors to meld and the meat to retain moisture. This cooking method uses minimal oil, making it less calorie-rich compared to fried alternatives. Pork ribs provide protein and essential nutrients such as iron and zinc, but they are also high in fat, particularly saturated fat, which should be consumed in moderation. Additionally, the sodium content can be significant due to the use of soy sauce and fermented ingredients. While flavorful and aromatic, balancing this dish with lighter options in a meal can help maintain a nutritious dietary profile.
