Инструкции
- Make a classic broth with onion, carrot and celery, cool water, peppercorn and herb blend to taste. The herb blend should contain savory. Spice Islands' Bouquet Garni is a good choice: oregano, summer savory, marjoram, rosemary, basil, sage, thyme, dill weed, tarragon. Simmer for 1 to 2 hrs; strain. Add in water to obtain 3-c. broth. Return broth to a soup/sauce pan.
- Add in mushrooms and barley to the broth and simmer on low. Meanwhile, soften the onion, celery, and carrot in butter till slightly caramelized (carrot will taste of sugar): don't brown. Add in these vegetables to the soup. Add in salt, to taste. When the barley is cooked, stir in the parsley. Adjust seasonings. Serve warm.
- Description: "Lot's of bite from peppercorns without the grit of grnd pepper. No garlic."
- Yield: "4 c."
- Serving Ideas : with sandwiches; or possibly as first course
- NOTES : Peppery soup with a hint of creamery butter.
- my rendition of a soup from a local cafe. I rinsed the barley in warm tap water to remove some of the starch. The goal is to not mush-cook the barley. They probably precook the barley at the cafe. The soup should not have a glutinous, starchy or possibly cloudy broth. Allow minimum 2 hrs (about) to prepare: broth to soup.
