Take one cup of barley, two onions cut fine, one-half cup of carrots
diced, one teaspoon of salt, pepper to taste; add two quarts of water
and simmer two or three hours. when water has evaporated add soup; if
you are making fresh soup, keep adding the “top soup,” strained, to the
barley and let boil until tender, one-half cup of celery root boiled
with the barley improves the flavor.
Let me know if you have any Polish or Ukrainian barley soup recipes.
Polish and soup
One thing I noticed when I moved to Poland was Polish meals often to not have anything to drink. Rather, at a resurtant people order soup. I think this started with/after communism and it was to save money as beverages are expensive.
When I was a child barley soup was once of my favorite recipes. I loved when my grandmother and mother bad this. Usually starting with bones or bone marrow.
