- Serve the ribs with some of the sauce, sprinkle with the sesame seeds and remaining scallions.

Very good...A bit on the hot side though, so watch that Cayenne! Made exactly as listed. Will modify a bit the next time. The flavors are very good together, however I would scale back the Molasses next time, I am just not a fan of the flavor it gives. Also I was expecting the sauce to thicken as the name says soy glazed, but it never did. It stayed more of a braising liquid. So I did as the other reviewer suggested and thickened it. Will definitely be making again with a few minor adjustments. Thanks for a great recipe.
