Soup with smoked pork ribs
Description
The soup is simple and quick to prepare. Smoked pork ribs are often used to make first courses (soups, borscht, solyanka). In my opinion, they go best with peas (or lentils). This soup turns out rich, hearty, and very tasty. Serve it hot, garnished with fresh herbs and sour cream. The soup is ready to serve.
