Ingredients

4 cups beef stock

1 cup water

½ cup pearled barley

1 large thyme sprig

1 bay leaf

Salt and freshly ground pepper

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

1 lb mixed wild and cultivated mushrooms, stemmed and thinly sliced

1 large shallot, finely chopped

¼ pound ground sirloin

¼ pound ground veal

1 large egg

2 tablespoons panko

2 tablespoons freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano

2 tablespoons chopped flat-leaf parsley

Sour cream, for serving (optional)

Directions

In a large saucepan, combine the stock, water, barley and thyme. Season with salt and pepper and bring to a boil. Cover and cook over low heat until the barley is nearly tender, about 18 minutes.

Meanwhile, in a large nonstick skillet, heat the oil. Add the mushrooms and shallot, season with salt and pepper and cook over high heat until tender and browned, about 8 minutes.

In a medium bowl, combine the sirloin, veal, egg, panko, cheese, ½ teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon pepper. Knead the mixture until blended, then roll it into sixteen 1-inch balls.

Add the meatballs and mushrooms to the soup and simmer over moderate heat until the meatballs are cooked through and the barley is tender, about 8 minutes. Discard the thyme and bay leaf.

Stir the parsley into the soup and serve in bowls with sour cream.

What timing - my husband was just asking me TODAY why I never made barley soup! I will try this one for him...flavors sound great, and we will enjoy the easy meatball addition, too. Thanks!
