Balsamumm Spare Ribs

A great idea for a light and flavourful appetizer. The important part is steaming the meat. The boiling liquid creates a warm and humid environment around the ingredient, cooking it gently. The flavours and fragrances are thus trapped in the meat and the taste and qualities are preserved. The advantages of steaming, allows using little fat. The vitamins and minerals are retained by the heat and gently infuse with herbs and spices used, the water made by food is a concentrate of vitamins.
