Mushroom Barley Soup Recipe

Mushroom Barley Soup Recipe

Ingredients:

• 6 cups (1420ml) of Vegan Beef Broth
• 1 cup (185g) Pearled Barley, dry
• 1 cup (45g) Kale, chopped
• 16oz (454g) of Mushrooms, sliced thick (baby bella or white button)
• 1 Onion (270g), diced
• 2 medium Carrots (160g), diced
• 2 ribs Celery, diced
• 6 small (360g) Red or Yellow Potatoes, peeled and diced
• 3 cloves of Garlic, minced
• 1 1/2 Tbsp (23ml) Avocado Oil
• 1 Tbsp (15g) fresh Thyme, chopped
• 1 Tbsp (15ml) Red Wine Vinegar
• 1 Tbsp (15g) Miso Paste
• 2 Bay Leaves
• Salt & Pepper to taste
• Plus up to 2 cups (472ml) of Water if needed

Instructions:

1. In a large pot on medium heat, add the oil and sauté the onions for 5 minutes. Add in the celery and carrots and continue cooking for another 5-6 minutes.
2. Add in the sliced mushrooms and thyme and let cook for 5-7 minutes or until the mushrooms have released their water and started to brown.
3. Add in the diced potatoes and cook for another 5-7 minutes. Add in the garlic and miso paste. Mix until the miso has dissolved or it coats all of the veggies.
4. Add in the barley and bay leaves and mix through. Add in the broth, mix, and cover. Lower the temperature to medium-low and simmer for 30-40 minutes, stirring occasionally. As the barley cooks, it will absorb the broth so you may need to add additional water. Add a cup at a time if needed.
5. Once the barley is cooked (it will plump) and vegetables are tender, add in the chopped kale and vinegar. Cook for another 15 minutes, check for seasoning, and add salt & pepper if needed.
6. Serve with a piece or two of hearty bread.

Enjoy your flavorful Mushroom Barley Soup!
