Steps:

• Trim excess surface fat from the ribs. In a 6-quart or larger pressure cooker, combine broth, leeks and vinegar. Pour 2 tablespoons of soy sauce onto a large plate, and turn the meat in it to coat thoroughly.
• Place meat in the cooker with any unabsorbed soy sauce. Scatter prunes around the sides; distribute the potatoes on top. Lock lid in place. Over high heat, bring to high pressure. Reduce heat just enough to maintain high pressure. Cook for 30 minutes. Turn off heat and allow pressure to decrease naturally, about 15 minutes.
• Remove lid, tilting it away from you to allow the steam to escape. Remove potatoes, and set aside. The ribs should be fork tender. If not, simmer with lid ajar until done. Transfer meat to a platter.
• Strain the broth, and degrease in a fat separator or refrigerate overnight. Discard congealed fat. Return broth and solids to the cooker. To thicken the sauce and intensify the taste, boil over high heat, stirring often, until syrupy, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Add more vinegar, if needed, to balance the sweetness and intensify the flavors. Stir in ginger to taste. Adjust seasonings with salt and pepper. Quarter the potatoes, and return them and the meat to the cooker to reheat and coat with sauce. Transfer to a platter or individual plates, and garnish with scallions.

PLUM-GINGER FREEZER JAM

Steps:

• Using a potato masher or fork, gently crush the plums in a large bowl to release some pulp and juices while keeping the fruit chunky. Toss with the sugar, then add the ginger and lemon zest and juice. Stir until the sugar dissolves. Measure the volume of your fruit mixture; you should have about 6 cups.
• If your package of pectin comes with calcium powder, stir 1/4 teaspoon of the calcium powder into 1/4 cup water to dissolve. Set aside. Place the 4 1/2 teaspoons pectin in a stand blender, or have it measured and ready if using an immersion blender. Bring 1 cup water to a boil, then pour it into the stand blender and blend. (If using an immersion blender, add the pectin to the saucepan and blend.) The mixture should become very smooth and look like a soft gel. Stir the pectin mixture into the fruit until evenly combined, then stir in 4 teaspoons of the calcium water, if using. The jam should thicken and be softly set. Add the salt, stir and taste. Adjust after tasting with more teaspoons of lemon juice, if necessary, for a good balance of sweet and tart.

KIMCHI JJIGAE WITH RIBS

Steps:

• Place the ribs and ginger in a large Dutch oven or other heavy-bottomed pot and cover with cold tap water. Bring to a boil over high heat and cook the ribs until they are no longer pink and gray foam collects at the surface, about 5 minutes. Drain the ribs in a colander and rinse under cold tap water. Discard the ginger. Rinse the pot out if it is especially dirty; place the empty pot back on the stove.
• Melt the butter in the pot over low heat and add the gochugaru and garlic. Stir until aromatic, just a few seconds, watching carefully to avoid burning the gochugaru or garlic. Add the kimchi and 2 cups of water and stir to combine. Nestle in the cleaned ribs in a single layer and season the cooking liquid generously with salt. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to medium-low. Cover the pot and gently boil until the kimchi starts to soften, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Add the onion slices in a single layer over the ribs, tamping them down slightly to dampen them in the porky kimchi juices. Cover the pot again and continue gently boiling until the ribs are cooked through and the onions have released their juices and thinned out the broth slightly, 10 to 15 minutes. These ribs should tear off the bone easily but remain juicy and chewy; they aren't meant to be fall-apart tender.
• Turn off the heat and stir in the fish sauce and maesil cheong, adding more to taste. Season with a final pinch of gochugaru and salt if desired. Top the stew with the watercress, if using, and let it wilt slightly in the residual heat. Serve the pot of kimchi jjigae in the center of the table, family-style, with a ladle and bowls of fresh white rice and a plate for the bones.
