Sugar
1 (cup)

Instructions
1
Begin by removing the short ribs from the packaging and rinsing them under cold water. If desired, trim any excess fat from the ribs to ensure they absorb the marinade better.
2
In a medium saucepan, combine the sugar, water, and soy sauce. Heat over medium heat while stirring to dissolve the sugar completely. Once dissolved, remove the mixture from the heat and let it cool slightly.
3
In a large mixing bowl, add the cooled marinade to the short ribs. Crush the garlic cloves and add them to the bowl, along with the oil and sliced fresh ginger. Stir well to ensure the ribs are evenly coated in the marinade.
4
If the marinade does not fully cover the ribs, add additional water until submerged. This step is crucial for maximum flavor absorption.
5
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or transfer the contents to a resealable plastic bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for a minimum of 4 hours for a quick soak or overnight for the best flavor infusion.
6
After marinating, preheat your grill or oven. Cook the short ribs until they are tender and caramelized, allowing the wonderful flavors to shine.
