   Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
 --------  ------------  --------------------------------
    1                    green onion -- finely chopped
      1/2  cup           soy sauce -- regular strength
    2      tablespoons   brown sugar, packed
    2      tablespoons   dark sesame oil -- or less
    1 1/2  tsp           sesame seeds -- ground
    1      clove         minced garlic -- or crushed
      1/2  teaspoon      red pepper flakes
      1/2  teaspoon      black pepper
      1/4  teaspoon      fresh ginger root -- minced
      1/8  teaspoon      msg -- optional
    1 1/4  pounds        boneless pork rib meat
 
 -Cut ribs so that they have about the same mass. Use thinnest, shortest rib
 for the example.
 -Use mortar and pestle to grind seeds and peppers together to release oils.
 Grind minced (dry) garlic; or use (wet) crushed. Place all ingredients in a
 container that is a little larger than the boneless pork ribs.  Mix well.
 Makes about 3/4 cup. Add meat. Marinate, covered, in refrigerator from 24 to
 48 hours.  
 -Grill on gas grill, basting with sauce.  About 20 minutes maximum.  Expect
 to char the meat.  Use grill's cover but check for fire often.
 Serve with a fragrant rice (Jasmine or basmati); steamed shredded vegetables
 (zucchini and carrots); Thai cucumbers (1 Tbsp sweet vinegar and 2 ice
 cubes, pinch of mint, chilled). 
 
 Summer tradition!  DOUBLE the sauce for standard package of ribs and baste
 and turn often.  The longer the marinating time, the better.
