MUSHROOM BARLEY AND COLLARDS SOUP



Mushroom Barley and Collards Soup image

This is a recipe I found when DH kept hounding me for a mushroom soup one winter! It is a great way to get some greens and whole grains in, even in the winter if you use frozen greens. I'm sure any could sub for the collards, and you could vary the taste (ie make it zippier with mustard greens, etc.). I hope you enjoy it!

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 1h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 ounce dried porcini mushrooms (about 1 cup)
3 cups boiling water
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 medium carrots, finely diced
1 medium onion, diced
8 ounces cremini mushrooms, thinly sliced, optional
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons sherry vinegar
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1 cup pearl barley
4 cups low-sodium vegetable or mushroom broth
1/4 cup sour cream, for serving
Chopped fresh parsley, for serving
4 slices hearty white or sourdough bread, for serving

Steps:

  • Place the dried mushrooms in a medium bowl and cover with the boiling water. Let soak until well hydrated and softened, about 15 minutes. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve, reserving the liquid. Roughly chop the porcini and set aside.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the carrots, onion, cremini mushrooms if using, 1/4 teaspoon salt and several grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until all vegetables are tender and mushrooms are golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Add the garlic, 1 tablespoon of the vinegar and the tomato paste to the pot, then continue to cook, scraping up any brown bits from the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Sprinkle the flour and thyme evenly over the vegetables and cook, stirring, until flour is dissolved and no longer raw, about 1 minute. Stir in the barley, broth, reserved mushroom liquid and porcini, 1/2 teaspoon salt and several grinds of pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer, cover slightly and cook until the barley is tender and the soup has thickened and reduced slightly, 30 to 35 minutes.
  • Season with salt and pepper. Stir in the remaining 1 tablespoon vinegar and ladle into 4 bowls. Dollop with sour cream, sprinkle with parsley and serve with a slice of bread, for dipping.

MUSHROOM BARLEY SOUP



Mushroom Barley Soup image

This soup is made with nourishing bone broth and root vegetables, creating a rich, aromatic and hearty meal that will keep you satisfied during the cold days of winter. It was my dad's favorite soup as a child. He remembers his mom instructing him on how to prepare it. "A bissel of this, a bissel of that," Bubbe would call out in her strong Yiddish accent, kvelling as she watched him sample the simmering ingredients.

Categories     soups and stews, appetizer

Time 3h30m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

3 pounds beef bones
1 pound chuck, cubed
1 onion, quartered
4 celery stalks, sliced in half
4 carrots, sliced in half
1 bay leaf
water to cover
8 cups beef stock (see tip)
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
1 large onion, quartered
8 celery stalks, diced
2 parsnips, diced
8 carrots, cut into rounds
1 bunch of parsley, finely chopped
1 cup pearl barley
1 pound fresh white button mushrooms, sliced
2 tablespoons tomato paste
2 large bay leaves

Steps:

  • In a large soup pot, combine all the stock ingredients. Bring to a boil and simmer for 2 hours. Strain the broth into another large pot. Save the meat, but discard the rest of the solids. If the stock in your new pot is greasy, let it cool for about 15 minutes and then place 6 ice cubes in the pot. The grease will immediately congeal and you can spoon out the ice cubes and grease in one fell swoop. Your homemade beef stock is ready.
  • Taste the stock and add salt and pepper to taste. Then add the onion, celery, parsnips, carrots, parsley, pearl barley and sliced mushrooms. Bring to a boil and then add the tomato paste and bay leaves. Simmer 30 minutes, until the barley is soft. Then add the saved beef and cook for another 45 minutes. You can add a little water if too much liquid has evaporated.

MUSHROOM-BARLEY SOUP



Mushroom-Barley Soup image

Soup made without meat or meat broth can be insipid. That's why most people think pea soup needs ham and mushroom-barley soup needs beef. But it's possible to make a satisfying, even hearty, vegetarian soup if you choose your ingredients carefully and extract every bit of flavor from them. Enter this mushroom-barley soup, a vegetarian dish with real body, texture and depth of flavor. The key ingredient here is dried porcini, which can be reconstituted in hot water in less than 10 minutes, giving you the best-tasting mushrooms you can find outside the woods and an intensely flavored broth that rivals beef stock. Don't forget to toast the barley while really browning the mushrooms and carrots - it lends a deep warmth.

Categories     one pot, soups and stews, times classics, appetizer

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 ounce dried porcini mushrooms (about 1 cup)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 pound shiitake or button mushrooms, stemmed and roughly chopped
3 medium carrots, peeled and sliced
1 cup pearl barley
Salt and pepper
1 bay leaf
1 tablespoon soy sauce

Steps:

  • Soak porcini in 3 cups very hot water. Put olive oil in a medium saucepan and turn heat to high. Add shiitakes and carrots, and cook, stirring occasionally, until they begin to brown. Add barley, and continue to cook, stirring frequently, until it begins to brown; sprinkle with a little salt and pepper. Remove the porcini from their soaking liquid, and reserve liquid. Sort through porcini and discard any hard bits.
  • Add porcini to pot and cook, stirring, for about a minute. Add bay leaf, mushroom soaking water and 3 cups additional water (or stock, if you prefer). Bring to a boil, then lower the heat to a simmer; cook until barley is very tender, 20 to 30 minutes. Add soy sauce, and taste. Add salt if necessary and plenty of pepper. Serve hot.
