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.
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.

Steps:
- Cook barley in a medium pot of boiling salted water until tender, 50-60 minutes for hulled or hull-less, 20-30 minutes for pearl. Drain; spread out on a baking sheet and let cool.
- Meanwhile, cook shallots in vegetable oil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat, swirling pan occasionally to keep shallots from burning, until golden brown, 5-7 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer shallots to paper towels to drain; season with salt. Let cool. Set shallot cooking oil aside.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high until just beginning to smoke. Arrange mushrooms in skillet in a single layer and cook, undisturbed, until undersides are golden brown, about 3 minutes. Season mushrooms with salt and pepper, toss, and continue to cook, tossing often and reducing heat as needed to avoid scorching, until golden brown all over, about 5 minutes longer.
- Reduce heat to medium and add thyme sprigs, garlic, and butter to skillet. Tip skillet toward you so butter pools at edge and use a spoon to baste mushrooms with foaming butter; cook until butter smells nutty. Using a slotted spoon, transfer mushrooms to a small bowl, leaving thyme and garlic behind.
- Toss cooled barley, cilantro, parsley, lemon juice, 1 1/2 oz. Parmesan, and 2 Tbsp. reserved shallot oil in a large bowl to combine; season with salt and pepper. Add mushrooms; toss again to combine.
- Just before serving, top with fried shallots and more shaved Parmesan.
- Do ahead
- Barley can be cooked 1 day ahead. Let cool; store airtight and chill. Dish can be made 3 hours ahead; store tightly wrapped at room temperature.
ASPARAGUS AND MUSHROOM SALAD
I've eaten antipasti like this all over Italy. Sometimes celery is substituted for asparagus, but there's no need at this time of year. Both thick and thin stems will work.

Steps:
- Steam the asparagus for three to five minutes, depending on how thick the stalks are. It should be tender but still have some bite. Rinse with cold water, and drain for a minute on a kitchen towel. Cut into 1-inch lengths. Place in a salad bowl, and toss with the mushrooms, herbs and arugula.
- Whisk together the lemon juice, salt and pepper, garlic and olive oil. Toss with the asparagus mixture and the slivered Parmesan, 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.
