First time making Beef & Barley Soup, and it instantly took me back to my Great Nan Pike’s soup. I remember she made this a lot when I was just a kid, and let me tell you—this one HIT. 😮💨🔥 If you’re out here cutting your beef and veggies into massive chunks… what are you doing?! 🫠 Tiny, bite-sized pieces are the way to go. Trust me. Let’s get into it: 🥩 Start with: • 1 lb stewing beef (bite-sized, of course) • Sear it in a pot with oil until golden brown, then season it up: ✅ 1 tsp garlic powder ✅ 1 tsp onion powder ✅ 1 tsp salt & pepper ✅ 1 tsp paprika ✅ 1 tsp savory (GAME CHANGER) 🥕 Veggies go in next: • 4 cloves garlic 🧄 • 1 onion 🧅 • 3 stalks celery • 1 massive Costco-sized carrot 🥕 • Fry ‘em up, add another tbsp of the same seasonings! 🔥 🍅 Flavor Boost: • 2 tbsp tomato paste • 1 tbsp soy sauce • 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce • ½ pack onion soup mix (trust me!) 🫗 Broth & Barley Magic: • 900ml beef broth 🥣 • 4 cups water 💦 • 1 cup barley (yes, I forgot to film it 😅 but it’s in there!) • Fresh thyme & 2 bay leaves 🌿 🥔 Secret Move: • 1 large shredded potato (adds the best texture 🤌🏼) • Fresh parsley 🌿 Let it simmer for 40 min total, then serve it up with buttered, broiled baguette 🥖🔥 and ENJOY. SO GOOD.
