How to Make Dutch Barley Soup Dessert
- Rinse 1 cup of pearl barley under cold water.
- In a large saucepan, combine the rinsed pearl barley, 4 cups of water, and ½ cup of raisins. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 3-3.5 hours, or until the barley is tender and the liquid has reduced significantly. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
- Stir in 1 cup of granulated sugar, 1 (15-ounce) can of sliced peaches (drained, reserving ½ cup of the juice), and ½ cup of pitted prunes.
- Bring the mixture back to a gentle simmer and cook for 10 minutes, stirring frequently.
- Remove from heat and let cool completely. The dessert will thicken considerably as it cools.
- Serve chilled. Optional: Garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon or a dollop of whipped cream.
