MUSHROOM BARLEY AND COLLARDS SOUP



Mushroom Barley and Collards Soup image

This is a recipe I found when DH kept hounding me for a mushroom soup one winter! It is a great way to get some greens and whole grains in, even in the winter if you use frozen greens. I'm sure any could sub for the collards, and you could vary the taste (ie make it zippier with mustard greens, etc.). I hope you enjoy it!

MUSHROOM BARLEY SOUP



Mushroom Barley Soup image

This is the soup that inspired the Campbell's "Mmm Good" campaign.

Provided by Dawn Lerman

Yield 8-10 bowls

Number Of Ingredients 19

3 pounds beef bones
1 pound chuck, cubed
1 onion, quartered
4 celery stalks, sliced in half
4 carrots, sliced in half
1 bay leaf
Water to cover
64 ounces beef stock
Salt and pepper to taste
Beef from stock (see note)
1 large onion, quartered
8 celery stalks, diced
2 parsnips, diced
8 carrots, cut into rounds
1 bunch of parsley, finely chopped
1 cup pearl barley
1 pound fresh white button mushrooms, sliced
2 tablespoons tomato paste
2 large bay leaves

Steps:

  • In a very large soup pot, combine all the stock ingredients. Bring to a boil and then simmer for two hours. Strain the broth into another large pot. Save the meat, but discard the rest of the solids. If the stock in your new pot is greasy, let it cool for about 15 minutes and then place 6 ice cubes in the pot. The grease will immediately congeal and you can spoon out the ice cubes and grease in one fell swoop. Your homemade beef stock is ready.
  • Now it is time to make the soup. First, taste the stock and add salt and pepper to taste. Then add the onion, celery, parsnips, carrots, pearl barley, and sliced mushrooms. Bring to a boil and then add the tomato paste, bay leaves, and parsley. Simmer 30 minutes, until the barley is soft. Then add the saved beef and cook for another 45 minutes You might need to add a little water if too much liquid has evaporated.

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

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.
