Method

1. 1 Soak the beef ribs in cold water for 60 minutes, changing the water twice to remove all the blood.
2. 2 Blanch the ribs in boiling water for 5 minutes, drain the water, and rinse each piece to remove any foam.
3. 3 Blend pears with onions, garlic, and ginger, then mix with soy sauce, sugar, and pepper to make a broth.
4. 4 Place the ribs in a pot with the broth, bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 60 minutes.
5. 5 Add carrots, potatoes cut into rounds, mushrooms, and jujubes, and simmer for another 25 minutes until the vegetables are tender.
6. 6 Open the lid and simmer for 10 minutes until the sauce coats the ribs, drizzle with sesame oil, then serve on a plate.
