Ingredients
  • 1/2 lb. mushrooms
  • 4 to 5 tbsp. butter
  • 1 large onion, chopped very fine
  • 1 cup pearl barley
  • Salt and pepper
  • 2 to 3 cups beef or chicken broth

Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 F. Slice the mushroom caps and chop the stems. Heat the butter in a skillet and add the chopped onion. Cook for 3 or 4 minutes and add the mushrooms. Cook another 4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the barley and brown it lightly, mixing it well with the onions and mushrooms. Season to taste with salt and pepper and pour into a buttered casserole. Add enough boiling broth to cover the mixture and come 1/2" above it. Cover the casserole tightly and bake in a 350 F oven for 25 minutes. Taste the barley for doneness. Add more broth, if necessary and continue cooking until the liquid is absorbed and the barley is tender.
