Barley with chanterelles
Description
The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. The barley with mushrooms turns out very tender and aromatic. Unlike many other mushrooms, chanterelles do not lose their structure, do not become mushy, and hardly change color. Therefore, the dish looks very appealing. If the barley was not previously soaked, it will need to be cooked longer. The ready dish can be served at the table.
