Barley soup is one of the region's traditional autumn dishes and impresses with its simplicity and versatility. Barley, a typical regional grain, forms the basis for this nutritious and warming soup. Barley soup is particularly popular at parties, as it is easy to prepare and can be kept warm for a long time - perfect if guests arrive at different times.
Finely chop the onion, dice the carrots, quarter the leek lengthwise and cut crosswise into thin strips.
Heat the butter in a large soup pan. Add the onion, carrots and leek and sauté for a few minutes.
Add the barley and cook briefly. Then add the stock, season with salt and bring to the boil.
Add the diced meat, reduce the heat, cover and simmer for approx. 2 hours.
Add the cream, season if necessary.
Of course, the meat can be omitted from the barley soup. It can also be replaced with dried tomatoes, peppers or dried pears.
