Hearty Legume and Barley Turkey Soup
Procedure: I did a quick soak of about a pound of Berkeley Bowl’s “organic mixed beans, peas, lentils, and barley” — covered it with water and brought it to a boil, and let it sit an hour. In the meantime, I sprinkled salt and pepper on three tur…
Huevos rancheros con chorizo y verduras
Earlier in the week, I made a stew using slowly simmered pinto beans and crumbled, browned chorizo sausage. I sauted onions, carrots, and celery together to flavor the stew. I combined it all, with the liquid from the leftover beans, and it became…
