Littlemafia's Supe Joh - Iranian Barley Soup image

This is my favorite barley soup. I prefer to make it with oats, but it can be done with barley as well, just it takes longer to cook it. According to your taste, add more or less of anything. This is the way we like it. It's suppose to be thick.

Followed the recipe exactly and the soup turned out great! The only change I made was using beef broth instead of lamb broth. The barley was cooked perfectly and the soup was very flavorful. Will definitely be making this again.

This was my first time trying Iranian barley soup and I was pleasantly surprised. The flavors were complex and delicious, and the barley gave the soup a nice chewy texture. I would definitely make this again.

Absolutely loved this Supe Joh! The barley cooked perfectly and the lamb was fall-off-the-bone tender. The flavors were incredibly well-balanced, with the dried limes adding a pop of brightness. Will definitely be making this again.

This Iranian barley soup, also known as Supe Joh, was a delightful culinary experience. The combination of tender barley, flavorful lamb, and aromatic herbs created a hearty and comforting dish. The addition of dried limes added a unique sourness tha
