Time 1h20m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

Kosher salt
1/2 cup pearl barley
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
3 small zucchini, cut into 1/2-inch chunks
6 ears of corn, kernels cut off
Freshly ground pepper
3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
4 scallions, thinly sliced
1 cup finely chopped fresh basil
3/4 cup crumbled goat cheese

Steps:

  • Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the barley; cook until tender, 45 to 50 minutes. Drain well and transfer to a large bowl.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the zucchini and cook, stirring, until browned, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the corn and cook until just tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Add the vegetables to the barley and let cool.
  • Whisk the vinegar, the remaining 6 tablespoons olive oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper in a small bowl. Pour the dressing over the barley salad, add the scallions and basil and toss. Top with the goat cheese.

This salad was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less feta cheese next time.

This salad was a bit too bland for my taste. I think it could have used more seasoning, or maybe some fresh herbs.
