• Add cabbage and barley. Simmer for 1 hour, stirring several times.

• Note: If you have some odds and ends of cooked, unseasoned veggies hanging around in the fridge you can add them along with the cabbage and barley. Don't overdo broccoli or other cabbage-family veggies because some cabbage is necessary too much upsets the balance of flavors.
• Note: You can readily substitute fresh vegetables for frozen. I just use frozen because I usually make it in the winter when fresh veggies are not cost-effective.
