merknader

Barley keeps absorbing liquid as the soup sits, so stir in a little extra broth when reheating leftovers. The soup freezes well in individual containers for up to three months. If you have leftover cooked turkey on hand, you can stir it in during the last five minutes instead of browning ground turkey at the start.
