Pork Noodle Soup with Cinnamon and Anise
['2 1/2 pounds country-style pork ribs', '6 cups water', '2/3 cup soy sauce', '2/3 cup Chinese Shaoxing wine or medium-dry Sherry', '1/4 cup packed dark brown sugar', '1 head garlic, halved crosswise', '3 (3-inch) cinnamon sticks', '1 whole star anise', '5 1/2 ounces bean thread (cellophane) noodles', 'Garnish: chopped cilantro; sliced scallions']
Gently simmer all ingredients except noodles in a 6-quart heavy pot, covered, skimming as needed, until pork is very tender, 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
Transfer pork to a bowl. Discard bones, spices, and garlic. Coarsely shred meat. Skim fat from broth, then return meat and bring to a simmer. Rinse noodles, then stir into broth and simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until noodles are translucent and tender, about 6 minutes.
