BAKED BARLEY RISOTTO WITH MUSHROOMS AND CARROTS



Baked Barley Risotto With Mushrooms and Carrots image

Wholesome and nutty, barley is a superb alternative to arborio rice in this risotto, since it's naturally plump and chewy when cooked. The grated Parmesan and butter stirred in at the end release the barley's starches, creating a silky, creamy texture. Make sure to use pearl barley, not hulled, since it cooks much faster and is more tender. As for the mushrooms, white button, cremini and earthy shiitakes are a tasty, accessible mix, though any combination of oyster, king trumpet and maitake would raise the bar. Still, the best thing about this risotto, which is a satisfying vegetarian weeknight dinner (or side to any large roast or fish) is that it's baked, taking away the pressure of constant stirring at the stove.

5 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1 pound mixed mushrooms, such as white button, cremini and shiitakes, halved if small, quartered if large (about 7 cups total)

Make certain to use only pearl barley for this. This can also be made on top of the stove. The mixture will thicken even more upon standing or refrigeration. My family loves this dish, it's a nice change from rice, hope you enjoy also! Add in the saffron, it really makes a difference in taste!

Tips:

  • Use a sturdy grain like barley or farro for a chewy texture that can stand up to the rich sauce.
  • Soak the barley or farro overnight or for at least 4 hours before cooking to reduce the cooking time.
  • Use a variety of mushrooms for a more complex flavor. Cremini, shiitake, and oyster mushrooms are all good choices.

  • Serve the barley mushroom Parmesan bake with a side salad or roasted vegetables.
