זֹאת חֻקַּת הַתּוֹרָה וגו': ספר במדבר פרק י"ט פ"ב
It is explained in Rashi, since the Sutton and Nations of the World tease Klall Yisroel “What is this Mitzvoh and its reason in it?” etc. behold all the Mitzvos are cherished than gold and sweeter than honey. And every person who serves Hashem Yisborach [G-D, Blessed is He] senses the great taste accomplishing them. If so, is this not the most important Avodoh (service), that a Yid to do even without a feeling of taste or sweetness, but only for the sake of Hashem Himself. If so the Mitzvoh that does not have a Ta’am is greater and more esteemed. This is the Inyon (idea) of Poroh Adumoh.
And this is what Rashi explains, that this Mitzvoh is Chukas HaTorah, why, since the Sutton and Nations tease us about such a Mitzvoh specifically, saying what reason is it. That itself is the secret of the greatness of this Mitzvoh.
