Very good albeit mild soup. Good for pairing with someting spicy. Dead easy.
Turkish Barley Buttermilk Soup from "Diet for a Small Planet" by Frances Moore Lappe
Serves 4
Saute in a heavy pot until golden: EVOO as needed (1-2 TBLSP) 2 large onions
Add and stir until lightly toasted: 1 cup barley
When onion is well browned, add: 5 cups seasoned stock (I use veg. broth, this would be OK with chicken broth)
Have ready: 2 cups buttermilk or yogurt 1 tsp. dill butter
Cook until the barley is well done, about 45 minutes to 1 hour. Remove from heat, let cool a bit, and add the buttermiolk slowly and more stock if too thick. Sprinkle in dill to taste and butter. You may need to reheat but don't bring to a boil or the buttermilk will separate.
