In reply to Agatha Yong. I suggest using the same recipe but reduce the time of cooking for short pork ribs.

Wow! This dish looks so appetising. It looks simple and easy to cook. Moreover, the ingredients are easily available locally. I will try . How about cooking soft pork ribs with this receipe? I guess the timing should be shorter. Ya?

Hi Fred,
Yes. It is called taucu in certain places. That is what I used.
As for the braising, I use a gas stove but over a very small flame. That is why the soft will not become tough. The duration is only for your reference as the best way is to do a taste test to check the doneness.

Hi KP,

The fermented soy bean paste is that the salty paste which is also called taucu or tauchu in other parts of Asia?

I also noticed that you braise the pork ribs for a very long time (3 hours), where other recipes braise pork ribs for a much shorter time. Is that because you slow cook them on very low heat to make the ribs extra tender?

Thank you.

In reply to APKun. You can use Tamari to replace soy sauce.

We have celiac in our family and can’t do soy sauce because of the gluten. Do you think it would work to add molasses to Tamari?

In reply to Medadvicees.Com. Should be okay with any ribs for this recipe. I have not tried with instant pot, but it should work just as good.

Wowza! This is amazing. Thanks for tinkering with the recipe and making it your own. Moreover, you’ve shared your adjustments and I’m thrilled to bits. This is what community cooking is about. Would this recipe work with back ribs? I bought some (on sale) the other day and then saw this article. And just to make it even more bizarre, I’m hoping I can make this with back ribs in my Instant Pot.

Hi Mokita,
I am sorry because I am not from Japan. This is a traditional Chinese ingredient, so I guess you only can get if from the Chinese grocery shop.

Hello, can you recommend some brands for fermented red bean paste in Japan if you know any? Thank you!
