Steps:
- Cook a chopped onion in olive oil until soft, about 5 minutes.

- Add a pinch of saffron, a splash of dry white wine and a handful of dried porcini mushrooms.
- Stir and let the liquid bubble away on medium heat.
- Add 4 cups hot vegetable stock, a cup at a time, stirring after each addition and waiting until the mixture is nearly dry before adding the next.
- Meanwhile, cook a handful of shiitake mushrooms in olive oil until lightly crisped; stir into the barley when it's done and serve garnished with parsley.
