Steps:
- Thoroughly rinse the mushrooms under cold water.
- Soak the mushrooms in the 6 cups of water for at least one hour (Ideally four to eight hours). Don't drain the water.
- Reserve the mushroom water (it will be dark in color).
- Uniformly chop the mushrooms and return to the water.
- Add the mushrooms, water, and chicken stock into a large cooking pot (7.5 qt or so).
- Bring to boil.
- Add the barley and cook until the barley is tender. This will be about 10 minutes with 'quick' barley or about 35 minutes with regular.
- While the barley is cooking, peel and cube the potatoes to about 3/4 inch cubes.
- Cut up the onions and saute them in a skillet until golden.
- Finely chop the cooked onions.
- Chop the carrots.
- Once the barley is tender, put the potatoes, carrots, onions, salt, and pepper into the pot.
- On low-med heat cook until the potatoes are done.
- When serving, add two tablespoons of sour cream and finely chopped parsley to each bowl of soup as garnish.
