Ingredients

  • 5 cups vegetable broth or 5 cups mushroom broth
  • 1/2 cup pearl barley
  • 5 cups mushrooms
  • 2 cups kale
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • flour, to thicken (I used about 3/4 cup)
  • pepper, to taste

Method

  • Boil the broth. Once it's boiling, add the barley.
  • While the barley cooks, slice the mushrooms. And saute them in oil. (trying to get them to release as much juice as possible).
  • While the barley and mushrooms cook, chop the kale.
  • Then, take the flour, and the same amount of broth and whisk them together, and add it to the soup. (It will thicken more later).
  • By the time the mushrooms are cooked, and the kale is chopped, the barley should be a little more than half done, add the mushrooms and onions, and stir occasionally.
  • Once the barley is almost cooked through, add the kale, and pepper.
  • Wait a few minutes stirring occasionally, and enjoy!
