Braised Pork Ribs with Potatoes

Overview

April 6, Chongqing, cloudy. The weather is nice during the three-day Qingming Festival holiday. The breeze blows, the sun shines through the clouds onto the earth, and the people coming and going are happy and peaceful. Although I have to go to work again the next day, it will be much more relaxed as I don’t have to host a program next week and only have to review films. I made braised pork ribs with potatoes and seaweed and egg drop soup for dinner. Sichuan peppercorns, millet pepper and Pixian bean paste were added to the ribs, which gave it a spicy taste, which is my favorite taste.
