Cómo preparar Beef And Barley Soup With Mushrooms For The Crock Pot
- Soak 1 ounce dried mushrooms in 1 cup boiling water for 30 minutes. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve, reserving the soaking liquid.
- Finely chop the rehydrated mushrooms and set aside.
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add 1.5 pounds beef stew meat and cook, stirring occasionally, until browned on all sides.
- Transfer the beef to your slow cooker using a slotted spoon.
- Add 1 medium onion (chopped), 2 celery stalks (chopped), and 1 cup carrots (chopped) to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened (about 5-7 minutes).
- Add 2 cloves garlic (minced), 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black peppercorns, 1 teaspoon dried thyme, and 1 bay leaf. Cook, stirring for 1 minute.
- Add 1 cup barley and stir to coat.
- Stir in 1 (6 ounce) can tomato paste, 4 cups beef broth, and the reserved mushroom liquid. Bring to a simmer.
- Transfer the mixture to the slow cooker with the beef.
- Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, or until the beef is tender.
- Discard the bay leaf before serving.
- Ladle into bowls and garnish with sour cream and fresh dill, or for a cheesy variation, ladle into oven-safe bowls, top with 1-2 slices of baguette and shredded Swiss cheese, then broil for 2-3 minutes until cheese is melted and bubbly.
