One of my grandmothers made a ham soup loaded with barley. I was never able to replicate it but that's okay as the rest of my family wouldn't eat it anyway. <sigh>
Learning to like grits was a struggle for me. So was making them. Southern husband could eyeball the right amounts of water and grits but it took me a while to learn to make something similar. Funny thing is that I thought he liked his better than mine till just a few months ago when he said mine were better...'course that could be his way out of ever making grits again...he's sneaky like that.
Barley and mutton stew with leeks and mushrooms. Beyond yum.
