WUXI SPARERIBS
I got this recipe from my October issue of Gourmet and made it for dinner tonight. It is the best Chinese dish I have ever made, authentic to the bone! The meat is so tender and the sauce is heavenly. I served it over plain white steamed rice!

Steps:
- Blanch whole scallion in a 4-quart pot of boiling water until softened, about 1 minute.
- Transfer scallion to a work surface and return pot of water to a boil.
- Add ribs to boiling water and return to a boil, then immediately drain ribs in a colander.
- Transfer ribs to a wide 2 1/2- to 3-quart heavy pot.
- Carefully tie blanched scallion into a knot and add to pot with ribs.
- Add wine, soy sauces, 3 cups water, ginger, star anise, cinnamon, rock sugar, and pepper to pot with ribs and simmer, covered, until meat is just tender, about 1 hour.
- Remove lid and boil over moderately high heat, stirring occasionally, until sauce is reduced by three fourths and meat is very tender, about 20 minutes more.
- Whisk together cornstarch and remaining tablespoon water in a cup.
- Reduce heat to moderate and add cornstarch mixture to ribs, then cook, stirring, until sauce is thickened, about 1 minute.
- Remove from heat and stir in sesame oil.
- Serve sprinkled with chopped scallion and cilantro.
