Baked Pork Ribs with Pineapple (Gradook Mou Op Sapparod)


Baked Pork Ribs with Pineapple or “Gradook Mou Op Sapparod” in Thai.  This Thai ribs recipe creates very tender ribs that are tangy-sticky good! They're easily made in your oven, so there's no messy parboiling involved - just stir together the marinade with the ribs and let them bake slow and long (the secret to tender ribs!).  which makes these ribs taste simply divine. Great for everyday eating, and also makes a terrific party food. Enjoy!

Note:
*Chinese Rice wine plays a major role in Chinese cuisine, possibly coming second only to soy sauce in importance. Made from fermented glutinous rice or millet, rice wine is used to tenderize meat and seafood in marinades, and to impart flavor to food. Rice wine even forms the basis of an herbal soup meant to help new mothers recover quickly after giving birth.  Chinese Rice Wine available at Chinese/Asian groceries.
