Preparation steps

1.

For the broth: rinse ribs under cold running water. Rinse soup vegetables and chop coarsely. Place ribs, vegetables, bay leaf and peppercorns into a pot with plenty of water and and cook for about 1 hour or until ribs are soft. Remove meat from broth and strain broth through a sieve.

2.

For the soup: peel cucumbers, halve lengthwise, scrape out seeds and cut cucumber into thin slices. Peel onion and chop finely. Melt butter in a saucepan, saute onion until translucent. Sprinkle with sugar and let caramelize slightly. Add cucumber, saute briefly and sprinkle with flour. Add broth, stirring, to the cucumbers. Bring broth to a boil,  reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes on low heat. Add cream and season with salt and pepper. Loosen meat from bones, cut into small cubes and add to the soup. Sprinkle with dill.

3.

Prepare croutons. Cut off white bread's crusts and cut into approximately 1/2 cm (approximately 0.2 inch) cubes. Melt butter in a pan and toast bread cubes until golden brown, season with salt. Pour soup into warmed bowls, sprinkle with croutons and serve.
