Barley and kidney soup

Description

A hearty first course. My aunt used to cook barley and kidney soup when I was a child, but I refused to eat her soup back then. Over the years, I've come to appreciate the flavor of this dish, and now I often prepare it myself. Barley and kidney soup can be made not only with water but also with meat broth. You can add both meat and kidneys to the soup at the same time. Adding pickle brine to the soup gives it a more tangy flavor. Be sure to serve barley and kidney soup with sour cream. Good luck and
