💡Making Tips

  • •Wear gloves when handling yam, as the yam's sticky sap can cause skin itching. Cut yam should be soaked in salted water to prevent darkening.
  • •Rinse pork ribs with warm water after blanching, as cold water will make the meat tough and dry.
  • •Use low heat for slow simmering to ensure pork ribs become tender and the broth becomes more flavorful.
  • •Don't cook yam for too long, add it during the last 15-20 minutes to maintain proper shape and texture.
