Instructions

Make a broth with approx. 1.5-2L cold water, the legs, the soup greens and the spices and simmer on a medium heat for 30-40 minutes.
Remove the meat from the stock, chill, pluck and cut into bite-sized pieces.
Now add 250 g pearl barley with around 300 - 400 ml water, bring to the boil and then cook covered for 40 minutes on a low heat.
Peel and cut the potatoes into small cubes and cook.
Chop the parsley and add to the broth. Now you can also season as you like and taste. Return the meat to the soup, as well as the pearl barley and the potatoes and simmer everything for another 10 minutes.

Published articles pass through the editorial team before going live, ensuring ingredient lists, techniques, cooking times, and nutritional claims hold up in a home kitchen. The team coordinates contributions across the site writers, handles reader corrections, and maintains consistency in measurement conventions, safety guidance, and dietary labeling. Posts under this byline typically represent team-reviewed reference material, site announcements, or editorial roundups rather than individual-author features, and they are held to the same sourcing standards as bylined recipe and product coverage.
