This soup was a lot of work to make and it wasn't worth it. The flavor was just okay.

I followed the recipe exactly and the soup turned out watery. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

This soup was a little bland for my taste. I think I would have liked it better if I had added some more salt and pepper.

This soup was easy to make and very tasty. I used cremini mushrooms and they worked great. I also added a little bit of white wine to the soup, which gave it a nice depth of flavor.

This soup was a hit with my family! The barley added a nice chewy texture and the mushrooms gave it a rich flavor. I also loved the addition of the fresh thyme.
