BARLEY, BEAN AND VEGETABLE SOUP



Barley, Bean and Vegetable Soup image

Provided by Food Network

Time 1h55m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 cup barley
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 onion, diced
2 zucchinis, diced
2 red potatoes, peeled and diced
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 bunch Swiss chard, finely shredded (about 1 3/4 pounds)
4 cups chicken or vegetable stock
4 cups water
1 (14-ounce) can Cannellini beans, rinsed
8 ounces green beans, tops removed and cut into short lengths
1/2 cup fresh or frozen peas
Sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper
Parmesan cheese, for garnish

Steps:

  • Add the barley to a large saucepan, cover with cold water, and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat, and then simmer for 45 minutes, or until the barley is tender. Rinse the grains under cold running water, drain well and set aside.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes. Add the zucchinis, potatoes, garlic and chard and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes more until the greens have wilted.
  • Pour in the stock and water and bring everything to the boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes. Add in the Cannellini beans and simmer for another 20 minutes. Return the barley, green beans and peas, and simmer for a final 5 to 10 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender. Season with salt and pepper, and grate the Parmesan over the dish before serving.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of beans. This will give your soup a more complex flavor and texture. Some good options to include are kidney beans, black beans, pinto beans, navy beans, and chickpeas.
  • Soak the beans overnight. This will help them to cook more evenly and quickly. If you don't have time to soak the beans overnight, you can also quick-soak them by boiling them for 1 minute, then removing them from the heat and letting them sit for 1 hour.
  • Rinse the beans before cooking. This will help to remove any dirt or debris.
  • Use a slow cooker. This is a great way to make this soup if you don't have a lot of time. Simply add all of the ingredients to the slow cooker and cook on low for 8-10 hours, or on high for 4-6 hours.
  • Season the soup to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice or a dollop of yogurt for extra flavor.

Conclusion:

This fiber-rich 7-bean and barley soup is a delicious and healthy way to stay warm this winter. It's packed with protein, fiber, and vitamins, and it's also low in fat and calories. Plus, it's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a hearty and healthy soup, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
