About Steamed ribs

Steamed ribs are a flavorful dish commonly found in Chinese cuisine, especially in Cantonese dim sum offerings. This dish typically features pork ribs marinated in soy sauce, ginger, garlic, and sometimes fermented black beans, then steamed to achieve a tender, juicy texture. The steaming process helps preserve nutrients and reduces the need for added fats, making it a slightly healthier preparation method compared to frying or grilling. Pork ribs provide a rich source of protein and essential B vitamins, while the marinade's ingredients, like ginger and garlic, offer antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. However, the dish can be high in sodium due to soy sauce and other seasonings, so moderation is advised for those watching their sodium intake. Paired with steamed rice or fresh vegetables, steamed ribs make for a balanced meal that's both comforting and nutritious when enjoyed thoughtfully.
