Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
7 cups chicken stock or canned low salt broth
3/4 cup pearl barley
3 tbsp. vegetable oil
1 1/2 cups onions -- chopped
1/2 lb. fresh mushrooms -- sliced
2 cloves garlic -- minced
2 tbsp. dried shiitake mushrooms -- stemmed and chopped
1 stalk celery -- thinly sliced

Combine stock and barley in large pot. Bring to boil. Reduce heat and simmer until barley is tender, stirring occasionally, about 1 hour. Drain barley into crockpot (broth in crockpot, barley into bowl).
Heat oil in large heavy skillet over high heat. Add onions; saute 5 minutes. Add fresh mushrooms, saute until brown, about 5 minutes. Mix in garlic. Add sauteed mushroom mixture, dried mushrooms, celery, carrot and parsnip to crockpot along with reserved broth. Place on HIGH for 2 hours. Add cooked barley, salt and pepper, and place on HIGH for 1/2 hour.
Re-season if necessary. Serve immediately.
NOTES : Original recipe yielded 8 servings, using 14 cups of broth or stock.
