Mom’s Beef Barley Soup

Be sure to dry your beef off with paper towels before browning or the beef won’t brown appropriately. Once browned, remove meat from pot.

• Deglaze the pot with a bit of broth, water, sherry or dry red wine and save the drippings. Sherry makes a nice rich flavor.

• Into the same pot, now deglazed, add 1 tbsp of oil.

• Sauté onions, green pepper and celery until soft. Add carrots and continue sautéing for 3-5 minutes.

• Add the meat back in and sauté another 3-5 minutes. Add water and broth.

• Add the bay leaf, seasoned salt and pepper.• Bring to boil, turn down and gently simmer

covered for about 1 hour.• Add pearl barley. Cover pan and simmer

until soft about 1 hour. Check salt. You may need to add more depending on what broth used.

• Add beans. Add any other veggies like peas, or green beans (if desired). Continue cooking for another 1/2 hour or so.

When local governments want to increase tax revenues, they are required to publish notices in the newspaper so that you will know. But that right to know could disappear.

Local governmental entities across the state want to hide their public notices on little seen, rarely visited government websites.

What you don’t know will affect you personally!

If it is not in the newspaper, you won’t know about it.

YOUR PROPERTY TAXES JUST WENT UP.OR HADN’T YOU HEARD?
