BARLEY AND HERB SALAD WITH ROASTED ASPARAGUS
When fat stalks of asparagus come into the markets, what better thing to do with them than roast or grill them? What's more, the California chef and teacher John Ash, demonstrating a recipe at the recent "Healthy Kitchens, Healthy Lives" conference at the Culinary Institute of America in Napa Valley - an event that bridges health care, nutrition science and cooking - insists that not only does asparagus taste better when it's not cooked in or near water, but also that it doesn't cause that distinctive odor in urine many people experience after eating it. I can't vouch for the latter claim, but asparagus is intensely delicious when you roast it And it's a beautiful addition to this lemony mix of barley and herbs. For the herbs, I like to mix sweet (tarragon, chives) with bitter (parsley, marjoram, thyme). Cooked barley will keep for 3 days in the refrigerator and can be frozen. The dressed grains will be good for 2 to 3 days.

Steps:
- Heat a 3- quart saucepan over medium-high heat and add barley. Toast in the pan, shaking pan or stirring grains until they begin to smell a little bit like popcorn. Add water and bring to a boil. Add salt to taste (I suggest 1/2 to 3/4 teaspoon for 1 cup barley), reduce heat, cover and simmer 45 to 50 minutes, until barley is tender (it will always be chewy). Drain off any liquid remaining in the pot through a strainer (set it over a bowl if you think you might want to use the barley water in a stock or risotto - it'll keep for a day in the refrigerator). Shake strainer and return barley to the pot. Cover pot with a clean dishtowel and return the lid. Allow barley to sit for 10 to 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, roast asparagus and make dressing. Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment. Snap off woody ends of the asparagus and place on parchment-lined baking sheet. Add olive oil and salt and pepper to taste and toss together until all of the asparagus is coated with oil (I do this with my hands). Make sure that asparagus is in one layer on the baking sheet in the pan and place in oven. Roast for about 12 minutes, or until tender and beginning to shrivel. It should be browned in spots. Remove from heat.
- Whisk together lemon juice, vinegar, salt, lemon zest, garlic, and mustard. Whisk in olive oil.
- Transfer cooked barley to a large bowl. Add herbs and vinaigrette and toss together until barley is evenly coated with dressing. Arrange on a platter or on plates. Lay stalks of roasted asparagus on over the top, and serve.

BARLEY SALAD WITH ASPARAGUS AND MUSHROOMS
This is an awesome salad to take on a picnic or to a barbecue. Sometimes with grain salads, I feel like grain is too much of the focus-but here, we have equal amounts of asparagus and mushrooms, and all of the ingredients play together beautifully.

Steps:
- For the barley: In a medium stockpot, combine barley, stock, and 1½ teaspoons salt. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and cook uncovered until barley is cooked through, about 45 minutes.
- For the onion mixture: Chop the shallots by cutting off the bottoms to make them flat. Then cut into the shallot lengthwise, leaving the root end intact; cut down and across for a clean dice. Peel the garlic by smashing it with the back of the knife. Remove the peel, cut the hard root off, and thinly slice. Slice the onion at an angle into half-moon shapes. Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil to a skillet over medium heat, followed by the shallots and onion. Add ½ teaspoon salt and the pepper; sweat until translucent, 1-2 minutes. Add the garlic and chili flakes and cook until onions are thoroughly softened. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
- For the mushrooms and asparagus: Add 2 tablespoons of olive oil to a skillet over medium-high heat, followed by the mushrooms. Add a ½ teaspoon of salt and cook until they have released their liquid and begun to caramelize around the edges. Add the onion mixture back into the pan and set aside. Meanwhile, trim the asparagus by snapping the tough woody ends where they naturally break. Cut diagonally, on a bias.
- Once the grains have opened up and are plump, drain the barley. Spread in a single layer on a sheet tray to cool down. Reheat the mushroom/onion mixture and add the thyme, asparagus, and 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Toss and cook for 1 minute; then remove to the sheet tray with the barley. Use a vegetable peeler to shave the Parmesan; set aside.
- Assemble the dish: Place the cooled barley and asparagus mixture into a large mixing bowl. Toss, taste to adjust seasoning, and drizzle the vinegar and 1 teaspoon of olive oil around the edge of the bowl, followed by the Parmesan shavings. Gently toss again, taste for seasoning, and serve.

ROASTED ASPARAGUS & MUSHROOM SALAD WITH CREAMY MUSTARD DRESS
This is a light and healthy salad that is perfect as a side salad, but also is elegant for a dinner party. But add some grilled chicken and it can become a main dish. Take advantage of fresh summer produce. You could always add fresh tomatoes or other favorites if you like.

Steps:
- Dressing -- Make this ahead and refrigerate until ready to use. In a small bowl, add the yogurt, mustard and parmesan, salt and pepper to taste and refrigerate until ready to use. If the dressing is too thick for you, add a little of the milk. I usually add about 1 teaspoon, but add more if you like the dressing a bit thinner. Make ahead, it is even better.
- Asparagus and Mushrooms -- When ready to make the salad, add the asparagus and mushrooms to a small bowl and mix with the olive oil, italian seasoning, pinch of salt and pepper. Toss well and add to a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper or not. The parchment paper makes for a quick clean up. Roast in a 425 degree oven, middle shelf for 7-10 minutes. You want the asparagus and mushrooms roasted and slightly tender, but not over done.
- Salad and Plate -- In a large bowl, add 1 tablespoon of the dressing and toss with the lettuce and onion. Plate about 1 1/2 cups of the lettuce per plate and top with the asparagus and mushrooms. Drizzle the creamy dressing over the salad and serve. ENJOY! This is a simple but very good salad.

BEST EVER ROASTED ASPARAGUS WITH MUSHROOMS
This is an easy dish I literally threw together for dinner one night. It's deliciously simple! I have indicated this recipe serves 2-4 people. That is because DH and I really enjoy asparagus and prefer large portions of the vegetable. Please feel free to decrease your portion size to serve more people if desired.

RADICCHIO SALAD WITH CRUNCHY SHIITAKE MUSHROOMS AND BARLEY
A colorful grain salad is the perfect light meal. Here, barley adds heft and texture to a bitter leaf salad that's balanced with a sweet-tart dressing. The sleeper hit of this recipe are the crispy shiitake mushrooms, which impart deep flavor in two ways: They are pan-seared, and the caramelization left in the pan adds extra umami to the dressing. For gluten-free diets, you could substitute buckwheat groats or brown rice in place of the pearled barley.

Steps:
- Combine barley, onion, garlic and 1 tablespoon kosher salt in a large pot. Add enough water to cover the barley by about 2 inches. Bring to a boil over high, then lower heat to medium-low and simmer until the grains are plump and tender, about 40 minutes. Drain the mixture, and discard the onion and garlic.
- After barley has cooked about 30 minutes, prepare the mushrooms: Heat oil in a medium skillet over medium. Add mushrooms and cook, stirring frequently, until golden brown and the ends are starting to curl and crisp, 9 to 10 minutes. Using a pair of tongs or a slotted spoon, transfer the mushrooms to a paper towel-lined plate and season with salt and pepper.
- Return the skillet with the oil back to medium heat. Add the shallot and cook, stirring, until golden, 1 to 2 minutes; turn off the heat. While the oil is still hot, stir in balsamic vinegar and maple syrup. Season with salt and pepper.
- On a platter, layer the radicchio with cooked barley and drizzle with balsamic vinegar dressing. Top with reserved mushrooms, parsley and dill before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature.
