Boil the barley
10 minPre-boil the barley in plenty of water for 10 minutes, then drain.
A tangy Russian soup, rassolnik is made by simmering barley with potato and carrot, then finishing with pickled cucumber and its brine. With its whole-grain barley and low-glycemic profile, this soup is a diabetes-friendly, filling option that travels well in a picnic thermos.
Pre-boil the barley in plenty of water for 10 minutes, then drain.
Chop the potato, carrot and onion.
Sauté the onion and carrot in butter, add the pre-boiled barley, potato and water, then simmer for 20 minutes until the potato softens.
Add the diced pickled cucumber and pickle brine, simmer for 10 more minutes, adjust the salt to taste and serve sprinkled with dill.
Add the pickle brine at the very end; adding it earlier keeps the potato and barley firm in the acidic liquid and stops them softening fully. Allergens: contains barley (gluten).
The tartness of pickle brine varies a lot between brands, so always taste the soup before adding salt at the end.
