Mushrooms in Marsala Wine (Funghi Alla Marsala)
Apricot Poached Pears
Carrot Wraps
Chef Ana Sortun, a chef who has a wonderful restaurant in Cambridge called Oleana, presented a delicious carrot “shawarma” at the recent Worlds of Healthy Flavors conference at the Culinary Institute of America in St. Helena, Calif. Her husband is a farmer, and at this time of year she i’s always looking for ideas for using the carrots he grows. These wraps are inspired by Ana’s, but have a slightly less complex paste/sauce than hers. (It is also more Georgian than Turkish.).
Georgian Cilantro Sauce
Years ago, I found an intriguing recipe for a sauce similar to this one. I loved it, but it wasn’t until I read Dara Goldstein’s “The Georgian Feast,” from which this recipe is adapted, that I realized this sweet, pungent sauce is a mainstay of Georgian national cuisine, often served with grilled meat, chicken or vegetables.
Skillet Mushrooms and Chard With Barley or Brown Rice
Mushrooms and barley are a classic combination, but brown rice is also very nice with this dish, and it cooks faster. Whichever you use, simmer the grain in abundant water and used the drained water to moisten the mushrooms and chard.

Baked Barley
Saffron-and-Mushroom Barley Risotto
Many vegan dishes (like fruit salad and peanut butter and jelly) are already beloved, but the problem faced by many of us is in imagining less-traditional dishes that are interesting and not challenging. Here are some more creative options to try.
Sweet Potato-Apricot Casserole
Parsley Salad With Barley, Dill and Hazelnuts
I was going to call this a barley salad with parsley, dill and hazelnuts, but it is really a parsley salad, like a Middle Eastern tabbouleh. The relatively small amount of barley contributes substance and a wonderful chewy texture, as do the hazelnuts. I prefer it on the lemony side so I use 3 tablespoons lemon juice, but I’ve given you a range.
Beet Greens, Green Garlic and Barley Gratin
I use a certain formula for Provençal gratins combining grains and vegetables. I cook the greens and garlic, and then toss them with a cup of cooked grains, three eggs, a half cup of milk and some Gruyère cheese. I happened to have purple barley in my freezer when trying out this recipe, but you can use any type of barley, brown rice or arborio rice.
Split Pea and Barley Soup
Heirloom Squash Salad With Pepita Purée and Pickled Shallots
Stuffed Butternut Squash
White Beans With Carrots and Roasted Garlic
Fusilli With Tomatoes, Eggplant and Pine Nuts
Skillet Collards and Winter Squash
Barley water is used to make nutritious beverages in many cuisines. I discovered that it can be useful as a sort of sauce when I used the water I'd drained from my purple barley to moisten a pan of vegetables. The barley water added rich flavor and texture to the already delicious vegetables.
Acorn Squash Stuffed With Bulgur
Green Garlic Tabbouleh
This heady version of classic tabbouleh salad is for garlic lovers only. Instead of the salad relying solely on parsley, the green garlic stems add intensity and pungency to the mix, while a touch of mint adds freshness. You can tone down the garlic flavor by increasing the parsley-to-green-garlic ratio if you like, or vice versa. And if you can’t get young green garlic with floppy, soft green stems, use scallions or ramp greens instead. Garlic chives will also work. This is best made in late spring when green garlic is just coming into season; it will be at its most tender and mildest then.
