BEEF-AND-BARLEY BURGERS



Beef-and-Barley Burgers image

Whole grains and veggies are the focus in this mostly-meatless patty, but not to worry-ground beef still plays a familiar and satisfying role. To ensure they had a flavor that would be as beefy as ever, we turned the volume up by adding a little soy sauce to the mixture and topped it all off with a shmear of creamy Dijonnaise.

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups cooked barley or barley blend
10 ounces ground beef (85 percent lean)
1 cup grated carrots (from about 2)
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger (from a 1-inch piece)
4 teaspoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
2 cups packed baby arugula
1 cup thinly sliced cucumber
Dijonnaise
Soft onion rolls, split

Steps:

  • Pulse half of cooked barley in a food processor until mashed. Transfer to a bowl with beef, carrots, ginger, remaining barley, soy sauce, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; stir to combine (do not overmix). Divide into 4 portions; form into 4 1/2-inch round patties.

BEEF AND BARLEY SOUP III



Beef and Barley Soup III image

This is what I consider the ultimate beef soup. Great on a frosty day. For beef stock, I use 2 1/2 quarts water and 6 teaspoons beef base. Also, use inexpensive red wine. No need for the good stuff here, and cheaper actually works better! Try with leftover pot roast.

Time 1h15m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons oil or other fat
2 pounds ground meat of your choice, such as beef, pork, turkey, chicken, lamb etc. (you can also use cubed stew meat; it will just take longer to cook)
1 large onion, diced (about 2 cups)
1 pound sliced mushrooms
2 carrots, cut into discs
1 cup barley (rice, farro or other grains are also fine)
2 tablespoons dried herbs (basil, thyme and oregano will all work)

Salt and pepper

Steps:

  • Heat a large soup pot over medium heat and add the oil. When hot, add the meat and cook, without stirring, until the meat is starting to brown on the bottom, 3 to 4 minutes. Break it up with a wooden spoon, then add the onions and mushrooms and cook until starting to soften, about 3 minutes.
  • Stir in the carrots, barley and dried herbs. Add the stock or water and bring to simmer. Check the seasoning and add salt and pepper as needed. Continue to simmer until the barley is tender, 45 minutes to 1 hour. The cooking time will vary depending on the type of barley--pearled or hulled--or variety of grain you use.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality ground beef. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your burgers. Look for beef that is at least 85% lean.
  • Use a variety of vegetables in your burgers. This will add flavor, texture, and nutrients. Some good options include onions, carrots, celery, mushrooms, and spinach.
  • Don't overmix the burger mixture. Overmixing can make the burgers tough. Just mix until the ingredients are combined.
  • Form the burgers gently. Don't pack them too tightly, or they will be dry and dense.
  • Cook the burgers over medium heat. This will help to prevent them from drying out.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the burgers are cooked to your desired doneness. For medium-rare burgers, cook to an internal temperature of 135 degrees Fahrenheit. For medium burgers, cook to an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit. For well-done burgers, cook to an internal temperature of 160 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the burgers rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help to keep them juicy.
