Pearl barley is one of those healthy cereals that cleanse the body of toxins and prevent diseases of the gastrointestinal tract. It contains fiber, provitamin A and silicic acid, improves immunity, strengthens the cardiovascular system. There is also no need to talk much about the benefits of mushrooms - everyone knows how much protein and vitamins they need for humans. That is why frozen mushroom soup with barley, the recipe for which we offer, is an amazing combination of not only tasty, but also healthy products.
You can freeze any mushrooms - champignons, oyster mushrooms, wild mushrooms, boletus mushrooms, honey mushrooms, boletus mushrooms and others. And even in winter you can prepare soup from them, which is in no way inferior to that cooked from fresh ones. For greater satiety and meaty flavor, chicken broth is also used.
Advice: Before cooking, barley should be left in cold water for 30 minutes, then pour boiling water for another 1 hour. Thanks to this, the cereal will be cleaned and steamed.
There are very few people who are not driven crazy by the fragrant aroma of wild mushrooms! “Silent hunting” is the favorite pastime of many city dwellers and the vast majority of villagers. Fresh forest mushrooms are dried, salted and pickled. Technologies of the 20th century added to these ancient methods of storage one more, perhaps the most common one today - freezing!
After all, what a pleasure it is to get a bag of peeled, pre-boiled mushrooms in winter and fry them with potatoes... or prepare a thick, aromatic soup that will appeal to both big and small (although it is extremely undesirable to give any mushrooms to children under 3 years old, after all, this is quite difficult for digestion, and also a very allergenic product). But what about those who did not bother with a strategic supply of frozen boletus and boletus in the summer?
Fortunately, in almost every store the shelves are full of bright bags of frozen mushrooms, there are also cultivated inexpensive honey mushrooms, and there are also royal porcini mushrooms. In any case, no matter what mushrooms you choose, before cooking they must be completely defrosted and rinsed very thoroughly with cold water, since bags of wild mushrooms often contain spruce needles and withered leaves.
I prefer to buy mushroom mixtures: they contain noble mushrooms, which provide taste and aroma, as well as simpler mushrooms for volume, which greatly reduces the cost of the entire purchase. My recipe today is very simple and unpretentious, but the soup turns out thick, rich and tasty.

Mushroom soup with barley
The tradition of serving first courses has long been rooted in our usual cuisine, and many housewives consider lunch without soup incomplete. An excellent solution to diversify your diet can be mushroom soup, to which you add noodles, rice or pearl barley. The latter has many useful properties.
Features of cooking
There is no need to cook meat broth, as it can overwhelm the taste of the dish. It is best to choose dry boletus or aspen mushrooms (they are sold on the market all year round) and soak them in advance. They soak for 4-6 hours and then cook like regular broth. Then the soup will be more flavorful. If you can’t find dried ones, you can take fresh white or boletus mushrooms.
It is not recommended to cook broth with champignons or oyster mushrooms, since there will be practically no aroma left. If you have no other options, add at least a mushroom or vegetable flavored stock cube (if you don't mind spice). Pearl barley also needs to be filled with water for 3-4 hours in advance, so it’s better to start cooking at least half a day before the expected lunch. You can cook it in advance, since you will have to fry it with onions later.
How to cook mushroom soup with barley - recipes with photos
If you want to make a rich dish, it is better to use several varieties of mushrooms. Dried ones are suitable for broth, noble white, boletus or aspen mushrooms are useful for giving the soup a real taste and aroma, and inexpensive, available champignons or oyster mushrooms will add volume. You can also put rare ones, for example, Chinese wood or shiitake, nigella, pigwort. In addition, you will need vegetables: onions, carrots, potatoes.
Mushroom soup made from dried mushrooms with barley
This recipe is the simplest solution that requires minimal cost. You will need:
- dry mushrooms – 2-3 handfuls;
- carrot;
- bulb;
- potatoes – 2 pcs.;
- vegetable oil – 3 tablespoons;
- pearl barley – 1 cup.
Mushrooms and barley need to be soaked 4-5 hours in advance. Then start preparing the dish. Do this:
- Boil the cereal.
- Place the mushroom broth on the fire, after cutting the dried mushrooms into small pieces.
- Peel the potatoes and cut into cubes. When the broth boils, add the potatoes.
- Chop the carrots and finely chop the onion. Fry and add boiled pearl barley. Keep on the fire until the roast is browned.
- After 10-15 minutes, add the roast.
- Bring to a boil again, keep covered for a while and serve.
Frozen mushroom recipe
Avid mushroom pickers who collect their own mushrooms often manage to freeze their own supplies for the winter. Any variety is suitable for preparing a rich, aromatic dinner in winter or autumn; it turns out delicious even with honey mushrooms. You will need:
- frozen mushrooms – 800 g;
- potatoes – 3-4 pcs.;
- carrot;
- bulb;
- pearl barley – 1 cup;
- laurel;
- black pepper, salt.
It is more difficult to cook broth with frozen mushrooms than with dried ones, so it makes sense to add a special seasoning or a bouillon cube. If you're against spices, stick to black pepper. Do this:
- Thaw the mushrooms and, without draining the water, fill the pan full. Bring to a boil. Add bay leaf and pepper.
- Chop carrots and onions and fry. Add a glass of pre-cooked pearl barley.
- After 15 minutes, add the roast. Let it boil again, keep it covered for 10 minutes.
How to cook oyster mushrooms
If you don’t know how to cook mushroom soup with barley, start cooking with the simplest recipes. Oyster mushrooms are easy to buy at any store, and the dish will be very light. You will need:
- oyster mushrooms – 1.5 kg;
- potatoes – 2-3 pcs.;
- carrot;
- bulb;
- chicken back;
- pearl barley – 1 cup.
Oyster mushrooms shrink greatly in volume when cooked, and do not have a pronounced taste. Therefore, it is better to cook such a dish with chicken broth or with the addition of special spices. Do this:
- Place the chicken back with the remaining meat on it in a saucepan and cover with water. When the broth begins to boil, skim off the foam, add salt, pepper and bay leaf, reduce heat and leave covered for an hour.
- Remove the chicken and remove any pieces of meat from the skeleton.
- Cut the potatoes into cubes and place them in the broth.
- Finely chop the oyster mushrooms and fry until the liquid disappears.
- In a separate frying pan, fry the chopped carrots and onions, add pearl barley to them.
- Place oyster mushrooms, fried chicken, and pieces of chicken into the pan. Bring to a boil, leave covered for a while.
How to cook pearl barley soup with mushrooms in a slow cooker
If you have a pressure cooker or multicooker from a good company in your kitchen (for example, Redmond, Philips, Panasonic or Polaris), you will be able to prepare a delicious dish much faster. A lean, nutritious barley soup that contains few calories will work well. You will need the following ingredients:
- mushrooms to your taste – 1 kg;
- bulb;

Butter mushrooms, honey mushrooms or white mushrooms have a bright taste, but if you use champignons or oyster mushrooms, additional spices will be required. You need to prepare it like this:

- Add mushrooms and cereals, cover with water. Add salt and spices. Leave on simmer mode for 40 minutes.
Champignon soup with barley and pickles
The original recipe for mushroom soup with barley is somewhat reminiscent of pickle soup. However, this dish can be prepared in a very unusual way to be sure to please your family and guests. You will need:

Mushroom soup made from frozen mushrooms with barley
Mushroom soup made from frozen mushrooms with barley is easy to prepare, but requires quite a lot of time to prepare. However, only pearl barley is “to blame” for this. So if it is cooked in advance - for example, when preparing it as a side dish for some dish, you end up with “excess” - then everything will work out much faster.

Soak the pearl barley. Rinse pearl barley thoroughly, place in a spacious bowl, pour cold water 3-4 cm above the surface of the barley and leave to swell for several hours.
Boil pearl barley. Rinse the swollen pearl barley thoroughly, put it in a small saucepan, pour boiling water 2-3 cm above the barley, add salt, stir, bring to a boil, reduce the heat, cover loosely with a lid and cook, stirring occasionally, until the water has completely evaporated.

Fry pearl barley with onions in butter. Heat a dry frying pan slightly over medium heat, put a piece of butter in it and leave to melt. Peel the onion, cut into small cubes, add to melted butter and fry until translucent. Place pearl barley in a frying pan, mix with onion and fry for 5-7 minutes over medium heat, stirring continuously. Then cover the speedo with a lid and remove from heat.
Add carrots to mushroom soup. Having finished preparing the frying, peel the carrots, cut into strips, pour into the soup, stir, bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover loosely with a lid and let simmer for 5 minutes.

This soup with mushrooms and barley is sometimes said to be a soup from childhood. Some people remember summer in the village... Mushrooms can be fresh, dried or frozen, usually white mushrooms, boletus mushrooms, boletus mushrooms, boletus mushrooms. You can also make a similar soup from fresh champignons, but wild mushrooms still make it more aromatic and richer in taste.
Mushroom soup with barley is suitable for a Lenten menu. Fans add a spoonful of sour cream to portions of mushroom soup as a hint of sourness, and for a lean version, a little tomato sauce is suitable. I also like to accompany a portion with just a spoonful of aromatic, i.e. unrefined vegetable oil.
Prepare the ingredients according to the list:
The barley needs to be washed and soaked for half an hour in cold water, then boiled until half cooked and rinsed.
Fresh mushrooms need to be peeled and cut into pieces. Dried ones must be soaked to soften them.
And mushrooms frozen in pieces are simply thrown into boiling water.
Throw the mushrooms into boiling water along with the semi-finished, washed pearl barley.
At the next boil, add diced potatoes if desired.
Finely chop the onion and carrots and fry in vegetable oil, add a little salt.
At the end of simmering, if desired, add a little tomato sauce, but this is not necessary, but a matter of personal taste or to diversify the menu.
Add the vegetables at the end of cooking and cook everything over low heat for another five minutes or until the pearl barley is cooked to the desired degree.
Mushroom soup with barley is ready.
Bon appetit!
Step 1: Prepare ingredients and pre-process them.
Rinse the pearl barley thoroughly under running water and drain it immediately after. It is better to do this procedure several times for better effectiveness. Bring 450 ml of any meat or vegetable broth or water to a boil using a small saucepan. Add bay leaf to it and add a little salt. While stirring, carefully add the pearl barley, reduce the heat to low and cook the cereal for 40 minutes. Observe time limits so that the barley does not turn out undercooked, or, on the contrary, overcooked. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the washed mushrooms and season with salt and pepper. Cook for about eight minutes until golden brown, then remove from the heat.Step 2: Combine everything and cook.
Heat a small amount of olive oil in a large saucepan and saute the carrots and onions over medium heat. Cover and cook for about three minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the remaining broth and bring to a boil. Add the pearl barley along with the liquid in which it was cooked, and the fried mushrooms. Reduce heat, cover the pot and simmer the soup for twenty minutes, or until the carrots are tender, stirring gently occasionally. Step 3: Add greens.
Add tarragon and parsley, you can just add parsley, it is always present at home. This will decorate your soup and give it a unique taste and aroma. If necessary, season the dish with other spices and herbs to your taste. Step 4: Serve pearl barley soup with mushrooms.
Ladle the dish into warm serving bowls and serve with toast or crackers. Enjoy your meal! This is a very healthy dish, so cook it for children more often. Barley is especially useful during the formation period and contributes to the full development of the growing organism.
If you store the soup for a while, the barley will continue to absorb liquid, so if you're making it ahead, add a little water or broth when you reheat it.

Diversify your home menu by preparing mushroom soup from fresh champignons with barley. A rich mushroom aroma will envelop your kitchen and whet your appetite. Barley will add nutrition and nutrients to the first dish.
The recipe is very simple and does not require large expenditures on products. This soup can be called dietary and lean. The broth is cooked exclusively with vegetables, but its satiety is high thanks to cereals and mushrooms - a vegetable substitute for meat.
Pearl barley is an ideal porridge for those losing weight, because... contains a large amount of protein, which is completely absorbed by the body, unlike animal proteins. Thus, the process of losing weight is correct, without losing muscle mass.
If you don't really like lean soups, then you can safely use meat or chicken broth instead of vegetable broth.

The pearl barley must first be soaked overnight or for several hours in cold water. Without soaking, pearl barley should be cooked for 2 hours.
After soaking, the pearl barley should be rinsed in a colander under running water. Then pour it into a saucepan, add cold water and cook for 20 minutes.
When the porridge is ready, drain the water, close the lid and set aside. Let's start preparing the soup.
The onion must be finely chopped and the carrots grated.
If you use pans that are also suitable for frying, then sautéing can be done directly in it. Heat the vegetable oil and add chopped onions and carrots.
Champignons must be cut into slices.
When the fried onions and carrots acquire a golden color, add the mushrooms and also lightly fry.
Cut the tomatoes into small cubes. The skins of tomatoes can be removed. To do this, you need to lower them into boiling water for 2 minutes. After this treatment, the skin is removed very easily.
Add tomatoes to our frying. Stir and simmer for a couple of minutes.
At this time, cut the potatoes into cubes. Place the potatoes in the pan.
Immediately add dry parsley, peppercorns and bay leaf. You can use your favorite spices.
Pour boiling water over all vegetables. I got about 1.5 liters.
5 minutes before readiness, add the prepared pearl barley to the soup. After turning off the stove, close the pan with a lid and leave the soup for 10-15 minutes.
Serve the soup, garnishing it with herbs or croutons. All to the table!
Advice: you should not add garlic to soups with champignons, because... its strong smell and taste overpowers the subtle mushroom aroma.
