Blanch the pork ribs in a pot of boiling water for about 5-7 minutes to remove impurities and blood. Once blanched, drain the ribs and rinse them thoroughly under cold running water to clean them.

Heat a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add a small amount of cooking oil (if desired, though not strictly necessary if using a non-stick pot). Add the sliced ginger, whole garlic bulbs, and white peppercorns. Sauté until fragrant, about 2-3 minutes, being careful not to burn the garlic.

Add the rinsed pork ribs to the pot with the sautéed aromatics. Stir-fry lightly for about 3-5 minutes until the ribs are lightly browned and fragrant.

Pour enough water into the pot to fully cover the pork ribs. Add the rice wine. Bring the mixture to a rolling boil over high heat.

Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer for 1 to 2 hours, or until the pork ribs are tender and the soup has developed a rich flavor and clear broth. Check occasionally and add more water if needed to maintain the desired soup volume.

Taste the soup and season with salt as needed. Adjust the amount of salt to your preference.

Ladle the hot soup into serving bowls. Garnish generously with chopped scallions before serving.
