Directions
Wild Mushroom and Barley Soup,Dried mushrooms and fresh veggies are simmered in a thyme and sherry flavored stock to create an easy and delicious soup fancy enough for company. NOTE: Sherry can be substituted as instructed here on Zaar or by using an equal amount of apple or orange juice to which a teaspoon of vanilla, orange or almond extract has been added. Recipe courtesy of Chef David Paquet, owner of Niagara Gourmet, St. Catharines, Ontario L2R 2B2 Posted for World Tour 2005, Canada,The onions carmelized easily while the dried mushrooms were soaking. The packages of dried mushrooms at my store were in 1 oz. packages and I only used 1 pack. My family liked the soup very much. The soup was terribly thick and even though I added an additional 12 oz of beef stock it was still thick. I may solve that problem by cooking the barley in water and then adding it to the soup. I did add some sliced baby bella mushrooms to the vegetables when I was sauting them. I’m glad that I made this recipe and I’m sure that I will make it again.
