8 oz. diced mushrooms

Add and toss
2/3 c. barley
meat of your choice snipped into tiny bits
a few Tbsp. flour

Add 8 c. water
several bay leaves

Platinum Member Joined: Mar 12 2009 Posts: 13155

6 to 8 qt pot (depending on if you like it thinner or thicker)

Saute for about 20 minutes in a little oil:
2 Large onions, diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 small carton mushrooms, sliced

Add:
6 carrots, shredded
1 Cup barley
1 Cup Navy Beans

Water to fill pot to about 2 inches below rim
Salt and Pepper
For fleishig - a couple of pieces Flanken
For dairy, you can add milk at end if desired (personally I don't)

Bring to a boil, then simmer at least 2 hours.

Variation: For vegetable soup, substitute 2 large zucchini squash for mushrooms. Replace 1/2 of the carrots with sweet potatoes. About 20 minutes to end of cooking, add a bunch of chopped dill.
