Krupnik Polish Mushroom Barley Soup
This is my m-i-l's recipe for mushroom barley soup, which is made with dried
Steps
Soak the cepes in a little water for 15 minutes , until they soften.
Chop all the vegetables finely in 2 batches in the food processor and put them in a pan with the barley and all the water.
Chop the softened mushrooms in the food processor , and add them to the pot.
Bring to the boil , remove the scum , season with plenty of salt and pepper , and simmer for 1 hour , or until the barley is very soft and plump.
The barley will thicken the soup.
Add water if necessary , to thin it.
Serve with sour cream , especially if the soup was made with water instead of broth.
