Servings: persons

6 1/2 cups low-salt chicken, beef or veal broth
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 medium onion, finely chopped
2 medium garlic cloves, minced
2 cups pearl barley (about 13 ounces), rinsed, drained
1 6-ounce package 3-inch-diameter portobello mushrooms, stemmed, gills scraped, caps sliced
or equivalent dried mushrooms
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese (about 1 1/2 ounces)
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
1 tablespoon chopped fresh Italian parsley
1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil

1
Warm broth in medium saucepan. (If using dried mushrooms, add to broth.)
2
Melt 2 tablespoons butter in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and garlic; saute until tender, about 6 minutes. Add barley; stir until coated with butter, about 1 minute. Add 1/2 cup broth; simmer, stirring often, until broth is absorbed, about 3 minutes. Add remaining broth 1/2 cup at a time, allowing broth to be absorbed before adding more and stirring frequently until barley is tender but still firm to bite and risotto is creamy, about 45 minutes.

Meanwhile, melt 2 tablespoons butter in medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and saute until soft, about 5 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Add mushrooms, Parmesan cheese, herbs, and remaining 2 tablespoons butter to risotto; stir to combine. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Divide risotto among bowls and serve.
