Preparation

Step 1

Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onion, carrot, and mushrooms; sauté 7 min. or until golden brown. Stir in barley, and sauté 2 minutes. Add stock, celery, and salt, and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 20 minutes. Add thyme, and cook 5 minutes

This had no taste to it al all. Perhaps if you added more thyme and some garlic.
