Time 2h25m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 11

10 dried mushrooms
5 cups chicken broth, divided
4 cups water
2 potatoes, cubed
2 carrots, chopped
ΒΌ cup pearl barley, or more to taste
ground black pepper to taste
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 onions, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced, or more to taste
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • Rinse mushrooms and place in a bowl with enough cold water to cover; soak until mushrooms are re-hydrated, about 15 minutes. Drain and slice mushrooms.
  • Combine 4 cups chicken broth, water, potatoes, carrots, mushrooms, barley, and black pepper in a pot; bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, cover the pot, and simmer until barley is cooked, about 1 hour.
  • Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat; saute onion and garlic in hot oil until golden, 3 to 5 minutes. Add onion and garlic to barley mixture, bring soup again to a simmer, cover the pot, and cook until flavors blend, about 30 minutes.
  • Whisk remaining chicken broth and flour together in a bowl until smooth; stir into soup, bring to a simmer, and cook, stirring occasionally, until soup thickens, about 15 minutes.
