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.

Steps:
- Heat a large soup pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat; add 2 tablespoons of the oil. Season the meat generously with salt and pepper.

Add the carrot, onion, and celery to the pan and saute until tender, about 10 minutes. Return the meat to the pan with the water. Bring to a boil, adjust the heat to maintain a gentle simmer, cover, and cook for 1 1/2 hours or until the meat is just tender. Add the thyme, barley, and tomato, continue to simmer the soup, covered, for 45 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a medium saute pan, heat the butter over medium-high heat, add the mushrooms and saute until golden, about 10 minutes. Season the mushrooms with salt and pepper to taste, and add them to the soup, and simmer for 15 minutes more. Remove the meat from the soup; cut the meat from the bone and dice. Skim any fat from the surface of the soup with a ladle or large spoon. Return the meat to the soup with the parsley. Season the soup with salt and pepper to taste. Serve in warm bowls.

- About Barley
- Pearl barley and quick-cooking barley absorb water faster than regular hulled barley because their bran layers have been removed. The quick-cooking variety, however, has also been presteamed and takes only 10 minutes to cook-more than twice as fast as pearl barley.

Steps:
- Separate mushroom stems from caps. Slice caps and set aside. Chop stems. Melt butter in heavy large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add mushroom stems, onion and leek and sauté until tender, about 8 minutes. Mix in chicken broth, potatoes, carrot, barley and bay leaves. Cover mixture and simmer 30 minutes. Uncover soup, add mushroom caps and continue simmering until vegetables are very tender, about 25 minutes. Season soup to taste with salt and pepper and serve.
Tips:
- Use a variety of mushrooms: This will give your soup a more complex flavor. Some good options include cremini, shiitake, and oyster mushrooms.
- Don't overcrowd the pot: If you add too many mushrooms to the pot, they will not cook evenly. Cook the mushrooms in batches if necessary.
- Sauté the mushrooms: This will help to caramelize them and bring out their flavor. Be sure to use a little bit of butter or oil to prevent them from sticking.
- Use a good quality barley: This will make a big difference in the flavor of your soup. Look for barley that is plump and has a slightly nutty flavor.
- Cook the barley according to the package directions: This will ensure that it is cooked properly.
- Season the soup to taste: Be sure to add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You may also want to add a splash of lemon juice or a dollop of sour cream.
- Serve the soup hot: This soup is best enjoyed hot, so be sure to serve it immediately.
Conclusion:
This mushroom and barley soup is a delicious and hearty meal that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is also a great way to use up leftover mushrooms. With its simple ingredients and easy-to-follow instructions, this soup is sure to become a family favorite.
