How to Make 90 Minute Wonder Or Less Barley And Mushroom Soup
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large (6-quart) pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add 1 pound cremini mushrooms, 1 medium onion (chopped), 2 celery stalks (chopped), and 2 cloves garlic (minced).
- Sauté until vegetables are softened, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add 1 cup pearl barley, 6 cups beef broth, 1 teaspoon dried thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 45-50 minutes, or until barley is tender.
- While barley simmers, brown 1 pound stew beef cubes in a separate skillet over medium-high heat until browned on all sides. Set aside.
- Stir in 1 (15-ounce) can of cannellini beans (drained and rinsed) and the browned beef into the barley mixture.
- Continue to simmer for about 5 minutes, allowing flavors to meld.
- Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Garnish with fresh parsley (optional) before serving.
