Black bean and garlic sauce is great for steamed dishes - just like those succulent steamed spare ribs with black beans or chicken feet that they have at 'yumcha'. Not only that, black bean and garlic is also used to add flavour to many stir-fries in Chinese cooking. The aroma and taste of fermented black beans and fragrant garlic works well with many dishes, especially when steamed.
For those that wish to add a bit of black bean and garlic sauce to their cooking at home or wanting to replicate the steamed spare ribs they sell by the cart load at 'yumcha', check out the 'Black Bean Garlic Sauce' by Lee Kum Kee. Available in all good Asian grocery stores, the sauce comes ready-to-use in glass jar of almost 400g.
All you have to do is mix roughly half a kilo of cut spare ribs with two tablespoons of corn starch and 2 1/2 tablespoon of the Black Bean Garlic Sauce and steam for 15 minutes.
Too easy!
