Notes about this recipe

    Like the other commenters, I was a little suspicious how cooking the individual ribs in such a hot oven, seasoned only with salt & pepper was going to compare to the usual slow-cooked racks slathered in a flavorful sauce but this is a winner. The cool, fresh, bright-tasting mint sauce is the perfect complement to the hot, crispy, slightly fatty ribs.

    Very good. Partner suggested they tasted Tuscan above all and proposed adding a splash of white wine to finish the dish. I think they would be even better barbecued, as the author's father does, rather than roasted in the oven. On a cold winter day, however, this technique worked well enough! The mint sauce was delicious and the ribs, while keeping some bite, were still tender yet crisp, to mirror the review below. I too salted the dish early in the day, adding the olive oil just before cooking.

    I have only ever cooked pork ribs low and slow, and usually St. Louis cut over baby back ribs, so I was curious about these. They are outstanding and the mint sauce is an excellent compliment. I trimmed the fat and cut the ribs and salted them early in the day, leaving them uncovered on a sheet pan in the fridge until I started to prep dinner. They came out beautifully crisp yet tender. Looking forward to making these again.
