Categories: Salads, Rice & grai
Yield: 4 Servings

1 2/3 c Chicken broth
1 1/3 c Water
1 c Barley
1 c Green pepper; diced
1 c Carrot; thinly sliced
1/2 c Red onion; diced
1/2 c Radishes; thinly sliced
1/4 c Fresh dill
1/4 c Fresh parsley

----------------------------------DRESSING----------------------------------
1 lg Garlic clove; peeled &
-crushed
1/2 ts Salt
1/4 ts Black pepper
2 tb Olive oil
3 tb Red wine vinegar

In a heavy, medium saucepan, bring the broth and water to a boil. Add the
barley. When the boiling resumes, reduce the heat to low, cover the pan,
and simmer the barley for 40 to 45 minutes or until it is tender (check
after about 30 minutes, and add more water if the barley is dry).

While the barley cooks, in a large bowl whisk together the dressing
ingredients.

When the barley is done, remove the garlic from the dressing, and add the
barley to the dressing while the barley is still hot. Toss the ingredients
to mix them well. Cover the mixture, and refrigerate it for about 1 hour or
longer.

Before serving, add the green pepper, carrot, onion, radishes, dill and
parsley. Toss the salad well.

NOTES : This can be served chilled, or eaten warm. If warm, mix the
vegetables while the grain is still warm and serve immediately.
