James cracks me up! It's only an 8.5 star soup, but he won't stop eating it long enough to have a conversation with you.
Mushrooms go very well in a soup like this. That combo of beef, wine, and Worcestershire soaks into the mushroom pieces and they pop with flavor when you bite into them. I usually use crimini, cut in half if they're too big individually.
Yep, I put mushrooms in just about everything except cheese cake, lol
I intend to use mushrooms also. I will half them & put them into the soup at the last 15 min mark so they don't fall apart. I need to get some chuck at the butcher. My mouth is already watering.
Yep Andy, mushrooms are the real deal. Love mushrooms.
@@johncspine2787 Sure, if you like barley, go for it, noting wrong there. Kids are always right, will try the noodles.
@@johncspine2787 yep, will check it out. I don’t make my own pasta, but buy the good stuff and do make my own sauces. And love making soups, stews, chili, ribs, and make killer cheesecakes and tiramisu.
That "well your devouring it!" I definitely think it was a 9.5/10
Jim, yes, leave in the mistakes...the 'human ingredients' that make every dish fun and delicious! That's part of what makes your channel a success. I enjoy watching you and Magnolia Table with Joanna Gaines because she also let's the 'human ingredients' remain in the show. You're the 'guy next door' that loves to cook and it shows...thanks for letting us come into your kitchen and enjoy!
Kid can’t even stop eating it enough to talk and he rates it at 8.5.
He's not liking the barley but he couldn't stop eating the soup 😂Kids! I think this soup delicious, I can't wait to try it. Thank you for keeping the mistakes in, no one is perfect and it just goes to show that even if you do make a mistake you can still have a great dish.
😂😂 That's what I said dad it's needs noodles But couldn't stop eating is
Sooo That means he likes it 👍🏽🤣
James is hilarious. He is harsh food critic but devours every dish
Bouquet garni is what the French call it when they tie up a variety of herbs together and put it in the stew.
For someone who wasn't enthusiastic about barley, your son was shoveling it in!
This is one of my winter mainstays too. This particular recipe is a great addition. The Worchester is a nice addition I hadn't thought of.
I love how you didn’t belabor the chopping of the veggies, great editing. I get tired of watching veggies get chopped. Haha
I love beef barley soup and will definitely use your recipe. Thanks!!
I didn't realize it until you said it,
but yeah there's a lot of chopping,
too much chopping going on ! Lol
@janette masiello that's what's required when cooking! It's realistic 🤷♀️
@@NadiaSeesIt
Yes I know, but it's kind of a drag watching a video of someone chopping carrots, celery and onions for 5 minutes
Unless of course you're in the mood to, because sometimes
it's very relaxing and Zen
That's why I like Jim's videos because all the ingredients are already chopped up 👍
I just made this! No modifications. Had to add water near the end as you suggested. It’s outrageously delicious! This Taste Tester gives it a 10! Thank you!
This soup looks like a cure for winter! Thanks, as always, for this timely recipe, and for the explanation of and options on those potentially controversial ingredients. These step-by-step tutorials are simply brilliant, and offer humorous insight as well: "High end Target Dutch Oven." Too funny yet too true. Happy Holidays to you and yours.
Years ago I bought two Dutch ovens at a Marden's discount store in Calais ME. I think they were ten dollars each, but big cast iron is big cast iron. Vanity? Left at the door.
“It’s called Beef BARLEY soup!”🤣🤣🤣Keeping mistakes in the video gives confidence to those cooks who might feel intimidated. I tried this recipe and it turned out delicious! Thanks for your straightforward, simple instructions.
Needs served over jasmine rice, or with Turkish bread (HOT, with lots of butter).
Jim, I enjoy watching you.
Beef barley soup looks delicious. I make it just like you do I put white wine squish up a can of whole tomatoes.I enjoy cooking, not as much when I was younger I am 75 years old now I have slowed down a little bit. I am full Italian parents come from Calabria Italy.
he makes everything look so easy and his recipes never disappoint
One of the reasons I love your videos is that you aren't pretentious. I like that you keep it real and honest with us while showing us beautiful yummy dishes. Thank you for that. I'm actually going to try this for dinner tonight. It looks delicious!!!
I love how James just tucks into every dish and just devours it 😂
Me too . Bustin dads balls and shoveling groceries. Lol.
He's a growing boy, needs his vitamins :)
Hmm! This takes me back to my childhood. My Mum would make this and often I would get sent to the local green grocer to get a small bag labelled ‘pot herbs’. They looked all dried and shrivelled to me but into the big pot they would go. This meal was served with freshly baked thick sliced buttered bread. Real comfort food in the cold weather.
A good addition is the classic French bouquet Garnier, which is sprigs of thyme, a few parsley stalks and a big bayleaf sandwiched between 2 bottom ends of a celery stalk and tied tightly together. Alternatively, place half tsp. black peppercorns,
a couple of whole allspice, about 2-3 cloves, and a piece of two blade mace in a spiceball or tied up tightly in a piece of muslin. I don't know how easy it is to find some of these spices in the USA.
They are used here in the UK in old traditional dishes from before the advent of refrigeration when the meat might be a little bit "high". This combination of spices with half a small onion in milk brought just to the boil then taken off the heat and left to infuse for at the least half an hour. The milk with the spices, etc., sieved out makes really flavourful bechamel. If you need to be as economical as possible, shin of beef is good; it may take a little longer to cook but has a lot of connective tissue which melts down adding a glossy finish to the soup, which could also, meat snd and veg having been initially browned off on the stove, could then be cooked with the other ingredients in a crock pot/slow cooker. I enjoyed the unpretentious and clear presentation
Yes, i like to use those spices ground and mixed with some flour and dredge the chunks of meat in it before browning them off. The flour also helps to thicken the broth as well.
Also a nice dark beer to use instead of the red wine. (Not that red wine is not nice!)
You guys are awesome. Great job Dad! I think your son's enthusiasm for eating the dish says it all.
Jim is _so_ ur-Italian American. The best type: not obnoxious or arrogant or precious about any of the cooking. Right mix of traditional and experimental. You can tell he loves good food, good cooking, and a good time. I've learned so many helpful steps from him, where to buy items, how much to use, how to store, understanding how ingredients work with each other, and more. God bless him.
Your recipes are always so good, love that you include the ingredients in the comments.
Jim and Tara, I’ve become such a big fan of the channel in the last year. I watch everything as it comes out, and when I get bored, I go thru older videos. Love the content! BTW, James sure has gone thru a growth spurt, hasn’t he? I cook a lot of your dishes, but add my own modifications. It’s all so good! Thanks for the inspiration!
That's like a warm hug in a bowl. Looks amazing, making this weekend
I'm loving the fact that still all throughout, you're keeping it simple, relatable and humble (understandable!) ... Although if there was ever to be a 'merch store' on the horizon, a t-shirt with "it's not fond, it's brown bits" blazend on it would be GENIUS... MEGA fan of your channel, every episode watched (in some cases MULTIPLE times) - I can only congratulate you ALL on your success with the channel and say THANKS - my weekly goto for quite some time 😎
Cannot wait to try this. I have to say, which I’ve never mentioned is everything I’ve tried from your channel comes out delicious. I know when I want a really good comforting meal I come on your channel and pick one. So I’m definitely making this.
I love this kid. He's straight forward and tells it like it is while continuing to shovel spoonfuls of beef barley. I'd make it with noodles just for him.
Thanks for always going over the ingredients before hand, it's something I wish other channels did since it makes following the recipe much more streamline! 👍
This is a must make this winter. Thanks for all your content!
THUMBNAIL MASTER
Thanks dude
High praise from The Brian, a god amongst mere mortals.
I made Jim's recipe and it's so good. It has become my winter soup staple. Definitely placed on regular rotation. Easy to make, too! It's a 10 across the board.
Hey Jim,
What I always liked about your channel is that it reminded me of cooking with my mom. Simple cooking with the main ingredient being love and sharing the meal with family. I’ve used so many of your recipes over the last few years so thanks again
Sincerely another Italian kid named Jimmy from CT 😊
One of my favorite soups! So glad you did this recipe. Can't wait to try it this winter.
Been looking for a recipe for this soup. Can’t wait to try this one. Looks delicious!
I've been eagerly awaiting this one!! Can't wait to watch and make. Thank you for sharing!
I love homemade soup in the fall and winter! I also love most all of your recipes...keep them coming! Thank you so much for sharing!!
I laughed so hard at the, "its called Beef & Barley soup, I didn't make it up" 🤣
When I was growing up, my sister used to ask my mother, "Is it supposed to look like that?" anytime mother tried a new recipe. ❤
Looks like a total 10 to me. I’ll be making this. Keep up the good work, love your channel!!
Terrific winter recipe for family dinner. I imagine that it gets even better after a day or two in the fridge.
Loving these winter soup recipes 🔥
This is the recipe I've been waiting for! Used to have this all the time as a kid. Thanks and Merry Christmas. Update: Just made this and it was awesome! Thanks James.
Made this last night, truly delicious! As someone relatively new to cooking, it was the first time I've been able to make a stew I'm happy with. Thanks so much for the recipe and video!
Yesssss! I was so hoping you would post this recipe! Thank you 😊
fabulous recipe! I always imagine that James has had a long day at school, and is so happy when it is time to be the taste tester! He doesn't like it but he is devouring it!? He really cracks me up and it makes your videos so much more fun and real when you include your family. I ruined my Lodge Dutch oven with metal implements before I knew better :( Need to get a new one, I use it almost every day.
I love this channel, man. Can't wait to try these recipes for the winter!
This looks amazing. Your recipes work up perfect everytime. Thank you
Love your presentation, as always. I also love how your taste-tester rates 8.5 while scarfing, barely pausing between mouthfuls. I've read recently about the benefits of barley and this looks like the perfect way to add it to my menu. Thanks!
I really enjoy your videos, especially your honest taster.
Good to see your getting some solid sponsors mate. I could care less about creators doing little adds when I care about what they are doing, and I love your work buddy. Keep it up!
Yum! One of my favourite winter meals! I grew up eating my Mum's version but now I make it myself.
A perfect wintertime recipe!
Bouquet garni !! Thank You for all of your great recipes! Merry Christmas to you & your family !🎄
I’m a new cook and I used this recipe and my family loved it making it again tonight. Thank you.
Thank you so much for doing this. I’ve never cooked barley. I’ve asked my brother over and over about a Beef and Barley soup. He never responded back about it. Now I can make this one and tell him about it.
Merry Christmas ♥️
Yes, yes, I made this and it was a huge hit in our house. The teenagers loved it and it makes the whole house smell amazing. I actually roasted the garlic before adding it bc I was making the Tuscan White Bean Soup at same time and that was also a show stopper - so good. Thank you for your videos!
Thank you for these recipes and sharing your knowledge. I was searching for a recipe and came across your channel and I love it.
I made this soup yesterday and it was delicious! I had to use egg noodles because my store was out of barley. This will now be my "go to" beef soup recipe. Thank You! Love from Texas ❤
Solid as always! Thanks for the recipie
Obviously, this soup is delicious, as James continues to keep eating it 😋. Can’t wait to try this! Thank you for posting.
I already made a few of your recipes but this one is amazing! The broth and beef were so flavourful and the barley had a nice texture to it. Definitely gonna make this again sometime.
I have made so many of your recipes and repeated them time and time again for my married children who don’t have time to even boil an egg! WONDERFUL!❤️
Really love your recipes! You have a great sense of flavors.
Beef Barley is one of my go to soups,..I make it pretty much the same as you’ve made it here, with the exception of the wine…I’ll have to give that a try, see if it steps up the flavour. I also like to add some diced potato towards the end of the process, just because I’m a meat & potato guy. Great recipe, I’m gonna make this over the weekend.
Cheers, and Happy Holidays to you & family! 🇨🇦
Red wine and beef are a classic pairing; think Julia Child's boeuf bourguignon. Red wine compliments red meats (though pork is versatile in that you can also use white with it if you know what you're going for) and adds depth; general rule is "if you wouldn't drink it, dont cook with it" but I cook with a lot of things I wouldn't drink outright, so honestly just experiment and see what you like (cheap wine can still do wonders). He used Cabernet in the video, my go-to is merlot but again everyone has their preferences (dry to semi-sweet is safe, sweet only if you want it to taste softer and less savory/salty).
Potatoes would absolutely work in this though it becomes more beef stew than beef and barley at that point - still really good (add some seared mushrooms to really drive it home).
I make all your recipes and my family just loves them... thank you!
Just made this for my family. They loved it!!! It really is delicious just as you made it. Thanks!!
Another great video! Great recipe and great comments from "the taste tester" , as ALWAYS!👍👍
easily my favourite cooking channel on youtube
Perfect timing with the winter storms blowing through. Thanks!
I love that Taste Tester & all his opinions bc he represents the younger generations. Barley is Gluten Free, right? James is woofing it down, scarfing it up yet "not such a fan of barley" - so hilarious! 😆 Love the detail again Chef Jim, reminders to heat add'l water, low sodium broth bc cooking down intensifies salt, etc - u are one of the best teachers online! Thanks much, can't wait to make this & had previously bought barley waiting for ideas to use it! Merry Christmas to all!
🎄🎁🥣🤗
You can tell that the Taste Tester hasn’t heard of Beef Barley Soup before. With age comes wisdom, as they say. He knows what it is now!😂
@@JoeBeardsley Exposure = best way to educate a kids palette! His is very developed for someone his age!
The taste tester said barley doesn’t go with the soup but finished the whole bowl 😂
@@edward1967able I know, love the contradiction! 🤣
I would give it a 10! This looks perfect to me, a beef and barley soup lover! What a great tip to tie the thyme with string before putting it in the soup! 🎄😀
Best cook and recipes on UA-cam. Thanks much!
There is much to appreciate about your videos, but one of my favorite things is how you start by showing all measured ingredients, with a few brief explanations of what could be an alternative, what stores might have good prices and what cheaper brands are just as good, sometimes even what pans and tools are best. You are a natural born teacher, and I am glad you don’t waste my time straining to be hilarious. And yes, I appreciate that you leave your mistakes in.
Just made this recipe, it's SOOO good!! Thanks so much, looking forward to making this for my family the next time I visit :)
You remind me of my family, so watching your videos makes me feel like I'm at home. Thanks for what you do!
OMGosh - that looks so good! I can't wait to try this one!
James is adorbs, but... I'm giving it a 10!!! Great reminder to me. I have all the ingredients on hand and haven't made this in ages! Great idea for tomorrow night's dinner! Big favorite in our family. Thanks, Guys! ❤
Made a huge batch of this beef/barley soup ~ Sooooooo delicious and perfect for our weather in the 20’s ❄️🥶❄️
Looks heavenly, I haven’t had beef stew in forever and now I’m salivating 😋
FINALLY a cook on youtube that doesnt make me want to punch my monitor
😂🤣😂
Perhaps it's just me but Alison Roman makes me want to punch my monitor. Just an example.
Going to make this very soon. It's great no matter the time of year. Love to watch your videos to learn, cook, eat. :) Thank you for all you do. We love you and your family. :)
Love the taste tester’s remarks! And the way he took care of that bowl of soup..I love beef barley soup, and can’t wait to try your recipe! Thank you for all the time and cooking involved to offer recipes that are delicious and easy….
My first time commenting, but I have to tell you how much I enjoy watching you and your family. I am 100% Italian heritage, but my family has been in this country for almost 150 years, so a lot of the recipes were lost through the generations. Thanks to you, I finally found and can make pasta e fagioli like my paternal grandmother made. She grew up in Brooklyn on Carroll Street. I make it weekly, now.
If your family is like mine, we were never big on gushing praise. We are much better at backhanded compliments and sarcastic remarks.
In this video, James reminds me of my brother. Maybe it’s an Italian thing. He would shovel the food into his mouth, obviously enjoying it; but, when asked how it was, he would say-in between bites-“it s*cks”. 😁
Thanks so much for the comment. Haha yes the sarcasm is strong in our family! I'm so happy you found the pasta e fagioli to be similar to your grandmas.
Sip and Feast hits on all the hearty Italian-American dishes our ancestors raised us on (not like the “Italy-Italian” recipes that look down on our US adaptations). Your recipes are spot on to all that I remember my mother feeding us. It’s not all about tomatoes and pasta!
James - haha… I don’t think I ever heard my grandfather say one good thing about my grandmother’s cooking. 😂
Lots of good memories of Carroll street (b/w Smith and Hoyt) where we would visit my grandparents back in the 70’s and 80’s and with the family all around Red Hook. Thanks for the mention and throwback!
I was brought up and lived near Carroll Street and 7th avenue by my mom’s parents. My grandma was the best cook! Such good memories. Happy Christmas to you and family.
Oh my God it’s freezing here and I have all these ingredients I’m definitely going to make this tomorrow thank you so much Jim for an amazing recipe you make everything looks so easy👍👍👍👍👍
I only watch your cooking shows. You, Tara, James, daughter occasionally plan my special Sunday dinners. Thanks a million!
I love a good beef barley soup. I definitely need to give this recipe a go. Thanks for doing this.
Thank you! This looks great, we will definitely make this. PS. I truly appreciate the calorie breakdown. It’s an added bonus.
Always fun and informative. Love how The Taster was shoveling it in but not giving it a higher score. Dad caught that one. 😂😂
Hey! you spilt the broth...and showed the chaos live, just for that I'll keep watching your awesome insight in to manufacturing great family meals. Keep the tasty recipes coming. 🍜🍽
Beef barley soup is my favorite cozy soup for winter. Home made is so good, far superior to the red label canned stuff. Super with a chunk of sourdough bread with too much butter smeared on it. Heaven! You need to tell Mr. Taste Tester there, that he needs to act like he at least doesn't love the food when he is critiquing. 😅 Noodles, he says. He was sure making himself miserable wishing for those noodles while he was shoveling in that barley as fast as he could. Too funny. Merry Christmas /Happy Holidays to you all, you still have the best cooking channel on the Tube. I can't wait to see what you will bring us next year.
Thank you for sharing this recipe and it looks so delicious 😋!
Soup looks Great.I never had Barley soup before , but I will try it .Looks like a very simple recipe . Thank You
I really appreciate your sponsorship with Butcher Box! I didn’t know a service like that existed and it’s really wonderful to see. I’m a vegetarian for both moral and health reasons, and it makes me so happy to see that there are industries for more ethically sourced meat on the rise! I hope one day in the future things like that can become more accessible to everyone
Keep up the amazing work! I love your videos and your recipes, they’re so entertaining and enjoyable to watch even if I don’t plan on making them.
Hubby and I LOVE a soup recipe!!
Right food as a comfort food in winter season,where place i living at this moment😋❄️☃️
I made this last night, it was so good. I used half the barley. This is a keeper😊
Thanks for the recipe. I live in cold Minnesota and a good hot soup during the winter months is a must. I have all the ingredients for this and will give it a go.
I made this for my husband and he absolutely loved it. I thought there would be lots of left overs but there isn’t much left. Great recipe!! I used ground beef, probably not as good as the steak but it cooked pretty quick and was still very flavourful. I will definitely make it again.
10/10 for the video my friend! I love, love, love beef barley soup and have never made it myself. Really looking forward to trying this. I think I might add a bit more liquid, as I prefer mine more "soupy", but that's just cooking. Thank you so much for this wonderful recipe and instructional video! Happy and safe holidays to the entire Sip and Feast family.
I hung up my chef hat about 12 years ago, and it's probably been a couple of years before that I made beef barley soup. Believe it or not, it was one of my favorites. Time to make it, thank you for the inspiration! Always love your recipes.
I made this. It is the best beef barley soup I ever made. Thank you for making this so easy to follow. My boys loved it.
once again, love it!!! happy holidays to you guys!!!
Not had barley in a long time, perfect for winter! Thank you.
