Introduction:
When the cold winds of winter howl, there’s nothing like a steaming bowl of Beef & Barley Soup to chase away the chill. Steeped in European traditions, this soup brings together melt-in-the-mouth beef, nutrient-packed veggies, and filling barley. It’s a soup that has warmed hearts and homes for ages.
Perfect Pairings:
While the soup stands strong on its own, consider leveling up the meal with some fresh-from-the-oven crusty bread or garlic knots. Dip and soak, letting the bread absorb that savory broth. For a lighter touch, a crisp green salad or some steamed greens can balance the meal perfectly.
