Warm up with a bowl of comforting and hearty mushroom barley soup. This recipe is naturally vegan with wholesome ingredients like pearled barley, garlic, carrots, onion, celery, cremini mushrooms, vegetable stock, and miso for umami depth.
I love pearled barley because of its chewy texture and quick-ish cooking time. You don't need to pre-cook pearled barley before adding it to this recipe. It's a dream in soups, letting off a bit of starch as it simmers.
In a lot of ways, working on this soup reminded me of the very popular creamy French lentil and mushroom stew that I posted years ago.
The recipe I'm presenting here does adhere to some traditional aspects-root vegetables, the barley itself, and components that offer a "meaty" flavor.
