Ingredienser
  

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 2 medium carrots, diced
  • 2 celery stalks, diced
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced

fremgangsmåte
 

  • Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion, carrots, and celery, and cook for 5 minutes until the vegetables soften.
  • Stir in the garlic and mushrooms. Cook for another 4 minutes until the mushrooms release their liquid and begin to brown.
  • Add the rinsed barley, vegetable broth, thyme sprigs, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine.
  • Bring the soup to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and simmer for 35 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the barley is tender.
  • Remove the thyme sprigs before serving. Taste and adjust salt if needed.

merknader

If the soup thickens too much after sitting, stir in a splash of broth when reheating. Fresh thyme sprigs infuse the broth evenly during simmering, but you can strip the leaves and add them at the end if you prefer a stronger herb taste. The barley continues to absorb liquid in the fridge, so store it in an airtight container for up to four days and add extra broth when warming.
