Steps

  1. Soak the ribs in cold water 30 minutes, then parboil 10 minutes and rinse off the scum.

  2. Combine the soy sauce, pear, onion, garlic, ginger, sugar, mirin, and water in a heavy pot.

  3. Add the ribs, bring to a simmer, cover, and cook on low 2 hours.

  4. Add the carrots and daikon and cook uncovered 30 minutes until the sauce reduces and glazes the meat.

  5. Skim the fat, finish with sesame oil and scallions.

Parboiling is what keeps the braise clear instead of muddy.

Food safety Braise until the meat pulls from the bone, around 90°C / 195°F.
