I have tried the mushroom barley soup from Spice and Spirit, which was good, but I found it to be a little watery. I am looking for a thicker/creamier soup. Any good recipes? (preferably pareve)

I love that recipe and never found it watery. But then again when I'm making soup I never look at the amount of water I am supposed to put. I just eyeball it. Maybe use less water.

I find you have to let mushroom barley soup simmer for a long time. the longer you simmer the thicker it will be.

In general to thicken soups I mix some flour in water and add to the soup and continue cooking for a while. If it's still too watery, I do it again until it has a nice consistency, sometimes I have to add a few more spices too.

you can also make a soup creamier and thicker by blending some of it with an immersible wand or in a blender and then adding it back into the soup

Thanks. I ended up making a different recipe, and let it simmer for almost 2 hrs and it came out perfect!

Mushroom Barley Soup

1/4 cup olive oil
1 cup chopped onion
1 cup diced carrots
3/4 cup chopped celery
1 tsp minced garlic
1 lb sliced mushrooms
6 cups water
3/4 cup barley
salt and pepper to taste (I also added some soy sauce)

Heat oil over medium heat. Add onion, carrots, celery, and garlic, and stir until transparent. Add mushrooms and cook for a few more minutes. Add water and barley. Cover and let simmer for a couple hours. Add spices to taste. Enjoy!
