This boiled ribs recipe from Chef John isn't supposed to replace traditional barbecued ribs — they are simply a quick and tasty alternative!
Step1
Prepare ribs: Mix 2 1/2 quarts water, rice vinegar, onion, garlic, salt, five-spice powder, chili flakes, and bay leaves in a large pot. Bring to a boil; then reduce heat to low and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes.
Step2
Place ribs in broth; return to a simmer, then turn heat to low and cook for 1 hour.
Step3
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with a silicone baking mat.
Step4
Prepare glaze: Whisk together soy sauce, rice vinegar, chili paste, mustard, ketchup, honey, brown sugar, and five-spice powder in a large bowl.
Step5
Remove ribs from broth and transfer into the bowl with soy sauce glaze; toss to coat.
Step6
Transfer glazed ribs to the prepared baking sheet. Reserve extra glaze for brushing.
Step7
Bake ribs in the preheated oven for 15 minutes. Turn ribs and brush with more glaze. Cook 15 to 20 more minutes, brushing occasionally with remaining glaze if desired. Remove and serve.
