Healthy Dried Mushroom and Barley Soup image

If you're looking for a hearty and healthful meal, consider this dried mushroom and barley soup. The barley adds nuttiness, a sprinkle of flour lends viscosity to the broth and the dried mushrooms provide meatiness and umami. If you have fresh mushrooms on hand, you can add them, too. The result is a deliciously nourishing, vegetarian dish that everyone will love.

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 ounce dried porcini mushrooms (about 1 cup)
3 cups boiling water
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 medium carrots, finely diced
1 medium onion, diced
8 ounces cremini mushrooms, thinly sliced, optional
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons sherry vinegar
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1 cup pearl barley
4 cups low-sodium vegetable or mushroom broth
1/4 cup sour cream, for serving
Chopped fresh parsley, for serving
4 slices hearty white or sourdough bread, for serving

Steps:

  • Place the dried mushrooms in a medium bowl and cover with the boiling water. Let soak until well hydrated and softened, about 15 minutes. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve, reserving the liquid. Roughly chop the porcini and set aside.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the carrots, onion, cremini mushrooms if using, 1/4 teaspoon salt and several grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until all vegetables are tender and mushrooms are golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Add the garlic, 1 tablespoon of the vinegar and the tomato paste to the pot, then continue to cook, scraping up any brown bits from the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Sprinkle the flour and thyme evenly over the vegetables and cook, stirring, until flour is dissolved and no longer raw, about 1 minute. Stir in the barley, broth, reserved mushroom liquid and porcini, 1/2 teaspoon salt and several grinds of pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer, cover slightly and cook until the barley is tender and the soup has thickened and reduced slightly, 30 to 35 minutes.
  • Season with salt and pepper. Stir in the remaining 1 tablespoon vinegar and ladle into 4 bowls. Dollop with sour cream, sprinkle with parsley and serve with a slice of bread, for dipping.

BEEF MUSHROOM BARLEY SOUP



Beef Mushroom Barley Soup image

Family favorite. It kind of turns into a type of stew as the barley soaks up much of the beef stock. Best part is that it gets better with age, so make plenty and enjoy throughout the week! It's always better the second day, so you might want to cook it one day, refrigerate it overnight, and then cook it again the next day.

Provided by Mimi Sheraton

Categories     soups and stews, appetizer, main course

Time 2h45m

Yield 1 1/2 to 2 quarts

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 to 2 1/2 pieces first-cut beef flanken
Salt
1 1/2 to 2 quarts water
1 carrot, scraped and cut in half vertically
1 stalk celery with leaves
1 small onion, peeled
2-inch pieces of parsnip and/or petrouchka
1 root of Italian parsley, if available
1/2 small knob celery, peeled, if available
2 or 3 sprigs parsley
3 dried Polish mushroom caps, soaked
20 minutes in hot water
2 tablespoons well-washed medium pearl barley
White pepper to taste
1 tablespoon minced fresh dill and 2 large or 4 small old potatoes, peeled, cut in half if large, and boiled for garnishes

Steps:

  • Place the meat and a pinch of salt in a 3-to-4-quart soup pot. Add water to cover. Bring to a boil, skim the foam from the surface, cover, reduce the heat and simmer gently for one hour.
  • Add the carrot, celery, onion, parsnip and/or parsley root, knob celery and parsley sprigs.
  • Remove the dried mushroom caps from their soaking liquid and chop coarsely. Add to the soup. If the soaking liquid is not sandy, add it to the soup.
  • Simmer for one hour, then add the barley. Simmer for 30 minutes to one hour more, or until the meat is very tender. If the soup thickens too much add a little boiling water as needed.
  • Remove the meat, trim off the fat and cut in chunks or spoonsize pieces. Return to the pot. Vegetables can be diced and returned to soup or eliminated, as you prefer.
  • Skim the fat from the surface of the soup. Season to taste and sprinkle in the dill if desired. Serve each portion of soup and meat with half a large (or 1 small) boiled potato.
