Yield Makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

10 cups canned low-salt chicken broth
3 pounds smoked ham hocks
3/4 pound russet potatoes (about 2 medium), peeled, diced
1 14-ounce can diced tomatoes in juice
1 medium onion, chopped
2 medium carrots, peeled, chopped
1 cup chopped celery
3/4 cup pearl barley, rinsed
2 teaspoons dried oregano
8 ounces fresh green beans, trimmed, cut into 1/2-inch pieces

Steps:

  • Bring broth and ham hocks to boil in large pot. Cover, reduce heat to medium-low and simmer 15 minutes. Add diced potatoes, tomatoes with juices, onion, carrots, celery, barley, and oregano. Bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer uncovered until meat and barley are tender, about 1 hour.
  • Using tongs, remove ham hocks from soup. Cut meat off bones and chop coarsely. Return meat to soup; discard bones. (Can be prepared 2 days ahead. Refrigerate uncovered until cold, then cover and refrigerate. Bring to simmer before continuing.) Add green beans; simmer until beans are tender, about 15 minutes. Season soup to taste with salt and pepper.

Tips:

  • Choose the right ham: A good-quality, boneless ham with a nice layer of fat will yield the best results.
  • Soak the barley: Soaking the barley overnight will help it to cook more evenly.
  • Use a flavorful broth: The broth you use to cook the barley will add flavor to the roll-ups, so choose one that you like.
  • Don't overcook the barley: The barley should be tender but still have a little bit of a bite to it.
  • Let the roll-ups cool before slicing: This will help them to hold their shape.
