Barley Mushroom And Kale Stew Recipes

MUSHROOM BARLEY

Steps:

• Cook 2 sliced onions in 2 tablespoons olive oil until caramelized, 20 to 25 minutes. Saute 3/4 pound sliced cremini mushrooms in 2 tablespoons butter. Cook 1 1/2 cups quick-cooking barley in chicken broth as the label directs, then toss with the mushrooms, onions, some dill and salt.

BEEF BARLEY SOUP WITH KALE

Steps:

• Heat a large pot over medium high heat and add the olive oil.
• Pat the cubes of beef dry and season them with salt and pepper.
• Brown the beef on all sides in the pot (in batches if necessary - do not overcrowd the pot!), and remove the beef to a plate once each side is browned. Don't worry about cooking the beef all the way through at this stage.
• Once the beef has been removed to a plate, add the carrots, celery, onions, garlic and thyme and saute until the onion is translucent and the veggies are soft.
• Add the wine and stir to deglaze the bottom of the pot, until the wine has reduced.
• Add the beef stock, cooked barley, and add the beef back into the pot.
• If using uncooked barley, add 1/2 cup uncooked barley and increase the amount of stock to 5 cups. This will yield a creamier (less broth-y) soup.
• Stir well to combine and cover. Reduce the heat to medium low and cook for about 30-35 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes or so.
• Add the kale, stir well and cook for 5 more minutes, covered.
• Serve with crusty bread.

MUSHROOM BARLEY STEW

Steps:

• Boil the broth. Once it's boiling, add the barley.
• While the barley cooks, slice the mushrooms. And saute them in oil. (trying to get them to release as much juice as possible).
• While the barley and mushrooms cook, chop the kale.
• Then, take the flour, and the same amount of broth and whisk them together, and add it to the soup. (It will thicken more later).
• By the time the mushrooms are cooked, and the kale is chopped, the barley should be a little more than half done, add the mushrooms and onions, and stir occasionally.
• Once the barley is almost cooked through, add the kale, and pepper.
• Wait a few minutes stirring occasionally, and enjoy!

CARROT-MUSHROOM-BARLEY STEW

Steps:

• Bring the carrot juice, 3 cups water and the mushroom stems to a boil in a saucepan over medium heat. Meanwhile, heat the olive oil and 2 tablespoons butter in a pot over medium-high heat. Add the mushroom caps and barley and cook until the barley is toasted, about 5 minutes.
• Add the onion, celery and rosemary to the pot and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is translucent, about 2 minutes. Add the carrots and cook 2 more minutes.
• Increase the heat to high and add half of the carrot juice mixture, leaving the mushroom stems in the pan. Bring to a boil and cook, stirring occasionally, until the liquid is almost absorbed, about 6 minutes.
• Add the remaining carrot juice mixture, the kale and ginger and cook, stirring, until the barley and vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in the remaining 2 tablespoons butter, then ladle the stew into bowls.
