Mmmmm, what a soup!!!! It is so tasty with all the different flavours working harmoniously together to make for a lovely taste. The pearl barley adds nutrition and substance to make this soup a whole meal in itself. When making this I felt that the full amount of liquid might dilute the soup too much, so I only used half of what was called for and the end result was perfect for me. That being said, Im not much a fan of clear soups, so thats just personal preference. I could not stop eating your yummy soup and will definitely make it again! THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing it here with us! Made and reviewed for Veggie Swap #22 May 2010.
