Remove from heat.
Place bouillion cube in a cup and add just enough HOT water to
dissolve the cube − set aside.
To the browned barley − add all the ingredients above EXCEPT for
the mushroom liquid. This includes the dissolved bouillion cube as well.
Mix well. Pour into a greased, 2−1/2 to 3 qt. casserole dish.
