Instructions

   Soak dried mandarin peel in warm water for 15-20 minutes until softened. Scrape off the white pith (bitter part) with a knife and finely shred the peel. Rinse fermented black beans and roughly mash them.

2. 2

   Blanch beef ribs in boiling water for 3-5 minutes to remove impurities. Drain and rinse thoroughly.

3. 3

   In a large bowl, combine blanched beef ribs with shredded dried mandarin peel, mashed fermented black beans, minced garlic, soy sauce, dark soy sauce, sugar, Shaoxing wine, cornstarch, cooking oil, and white pepper. Mix well to ensure all ribs are coated.

4. 4

   Arrange the marinated beef ribs on a heatproof plate in a single layer.

5. 5

   Steam over high heat for 15-20 minutes, or until the beef ribs are tender.
