Favoriting Hinky Dinky Time with Uncle Michael: Playlist from November 7, 2014 Favoriting

Uncle Michael's avatar View Uncle Michael's profile Favoriting

Turning over the toy box and jamming together the gloriously mismatched musical Lincoln Logs, Legos and Tinker Toys from Tin Pan Alley pluggers, pickled egg tavern weepers, lockstep soul ensembles, skinny-tie power poppers, Eurotrash ravers, moontanned art school rockers, drunken soccer anthems and anything else that seems like a good idea at the time. There are no guilty pleasures.

So what kind of beef are you starting with? I haven't cooked with barley, so not much help there.

Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:31pm
pacific standard simon:

You got a dutch oven?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:31pm
Mike East:

If I put barley in my soup, I usually cook it separately and add it when I serve. It tends to soak up too much and get mushy if you leave it in the soup too long...which is okay for the first time you eat it, but the leftovers get mushy.

Brown the meat, then cook covered, low and slow, in sweet dark beer (to go with the barley, hey!)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:35pm
Mike East:

also good if you cook the barley with whatever stock you are using instead of water so it gets some of the flavor.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:35pm
Uncle Michael:

Dean, play the Squeeze song and every version of Bang Bang (My Baby Shot Me Down), too.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:37pm
Uncle Michael:

I like that. I'll do the beef in beer in a dutch oven. I'll add that to the sweated aromatics, that then get butter and the mushrooms. Beef in last then stock. Barley separately.
