CREAM OF WILD MUSHROOM SOUP

Steps:

• Clean the mushrooms by wiping them with a dry paper towel. Don't wash them! Separate the stems, trim off any bad parts, and coarsely chop the stems. Slice the mushroom caps 1/4-inch thick and, if they are big, cut them into bite-sized pieces. Set aside.
• To make the stock, heat the olive oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter in a large pot. Add the chopped mushroom stems, the onion, carrot, the sprig of thyme, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and cook over medium-low heat for 10 to 15 minutes, until the vegetables are soft. Add 6 cups water, bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer uncovered for 30 minutes. Strain, reserving the liquid. You should have about 4 1/2 cups of stock. If not, add some water.
• Meanwhile, in another large pot, heat the remaining 1/4 pound of butter and add the leeks. Cook over low heat for 15 to 20 minutes, until the leeks begin to brown. Add the sliced mushroom caps and cook for 10 minutes, or until they are browned and tender. Add the flour and cook for 1 minute. Add the white wine and stir for another minute, scraping the bottom of the pot. Add the mushroom stock, minced thyme leaves, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 15 minutes. Add the half-and-half, cream, and parsley, season with salt and pepper, to taste, and heat through but do not boil. Serve hot.

• Add the flour and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Add the red wine and stock to deglaze the pan, scraping with a wooden spoon to loosen the browned bits on the bottom. Bring to a boil and then reduce the heat to medium-low to maintain a gentle simmer. Add the barley and cook, stirring occasionally, until it's tender, about 1 hour.

Bring to the boil, then turn the heat down and simmer for 30 mins (it might take a bit longer) until the barley is tender. Taste for seasoning. Stir in the dill.

RICH BARLEY MUSHROOM SOUP

Steps:

• In a soup pot on med heat, melt 1 stick of butter and add celery and onions to sweat until translucent. (I use the food processor for my onions because I don't actually want the onion pieces -- I pulse it until it's a rough puree (just past finely chopped).
• Add in the barley (I didn't use quick barley, but I'm sure you could). Stir a few minutes.
• Add in all of your mushrooms and cook until the mushrooms have gotten dark and given up a lot of their liquid.
• Add in the chicken broth.
• Add the soy sauce and taste. If it's not salty enough, add soy sauce 1 tsp at a time until you like it. (A little goes a long way. Taste soup before and after adding the soy -- you won't believe the difference!).
• Simmer on stove until barley has totally expanded. I think the soup may even be better the next day, but it's certainly a quick soup that could be made and served within 45 minutes. Probably less if you use Quick Barley.
• Add black pepper to taste and tweak with more soy, as needed.
• Sour cream and dill are a great garnish, but not necessary.
• Prep and cooking time are estimates, but it shouldn't take longer than that.
• Soup can thicken a lot overnight to almost a stew like consistency. I usually add more broth (or water) and check soy and pepper before serving.

Cover and bring to the boil then lower the heat and simmer for 30 minutes. (In the meantime boil the pasta according to the packet instructions).
• Remove from the heat and pour the mixture through a fine mesh sieve making sure you reserve the liquid. Chop the mushrooms finely. In a small pan heat up the butter and fry the mushrooms for 4-5 minutes stirring often.
• While the mushrooms are cooking make the broth. To the pot add the vegetables, parsley, allspice berries and vegetable stock. Cover and bring to the boil then turn the heat down and simmer for 40 minutes. Using a slotted spoon lift the vegetables out of the pot (you won't need them anymore).
• Using a fine mesh sieve pour in the liquid from cooking the mushrooms and adjust the seasoning. Add the fried mushrooms, bring the soup to the boil again and simmer, covered, for 10 minutes.
