The Perfect Fusion of Chinese and Hawaiian Cuisine
When it comes to creating mouth-watering dishes, Chef Peter Merriman is a master at combining different flavors and ingredients. His recipe for Chinese shortribs is a perfect example of this fusion, bringing together the bold flavors of Chinese cuisine with the fresh and vibrant tastes of Hawaiian ingredients.
Bold and Tender Shortribs

To begin, the shortribs are marinated in a blend of soy sauce, brown sugar, and garlic, giving them a savory and slightly sweet flavor. They are then slow-cooked until they are fall-off-the-bone tender, allowing all the flavors to meld together.
A Burst of Freshness from Hawaiian Pineapple
To balance out the richness of the shortribs, Chef Merriman adds a touch of Hawaiian flavor with the addition of fresh pineapple. This tropical fruit adds a burst of freshness and tanginess to the dish, complementing the savory flavors of the marinade.
The Perfect Blend of Spices
No Chinese dish is complete without the perfect blend of spices, and this recipe is no exception. Chef Merriman adds a mix of ginger, star anise, and Chinese five-spice powder to the marinade, giving the shortribs a deliciously complex flavor. These spices also add a warm and comforting aroma to the dish, making it even more irresistible.
