Veg Basket Broth

Home   Recipes for Pulses, Grains, Seeds, Flakes, Flour, Ferments...   Veg Basket Broth
Barley Flakes Broth Mix Emmer Green Peas lentils Lunch Marrowfat Peas Soups Split Fava Beans Supper

by Jenny Chandler March 04, 2024

Loaded with fresh veg alongside our nourishing broth mix of dried peas, fava beans, lentils and flaked cereals; this dish manages to feel simultaneously light and hearty, quite a feat. It’s a great way of emptying the veg basket or visiting your local greengrocer and buying one of almost everything.

Tips: If you are using veg stock, rather than chicken, you may like to add a touch of our fermented fava bean umami paste or miso to up the savoury depth.

Forgotten to soak the broth mix? No worries, it will take a little longer to cook and give a cloudier broth, but it will be fabulous all the same.

Serves 4 to 6

Ingredients

  • 1.5 litres Good Chicken or Vegetable Stock
  • 250g Mix #1 - Broth Mix  or Mix #4 - Gluten-free Broth Mix (ideally soaked for 6 hours)
  • 1 Bay Leaf
  • A Few Sprigs of Thyme, tied together
  • Salt and Pepper, to taste
  • 1 Banana Shallot
  • 2 Medium Carrots
  • 1 Stick of Celery
  • A Finger of Fresh Turmeric
  • 500g of a mix of the following Carrot, Celeriac, Jerusalem Artichokes, Squash, Golden Beet, Parsnip, Sweet Potato
  • 200g Chard, Kale or Cavolo Nero
For the Gremolata
  • 20g Flat Leaf Parsley
  • 1 Clove of Garlic, crushed
  • Zest of ½ Lemon
To Serve
  • Optional topping of a few teaspoons of chopped fermented turnip (beetroot or ruby kraut. Would work well too) Otherwise a good squeeze of lemon juice

Method

  1. Heat up the stock and add the drained broth mix, the bay leaf and thyme - boil for about 30 minutes until the whole peas are tender. Season with salt and pepper.
  2. Meanwhile, chop all the vegetables into 2 cm-ish dice. Remove the leaves from the stalks of your greens, chopping the stalks into dice and slicing the leaves quite finely.
  3. Chop up the parsley and mix with the garlic and zest for the gremolata.
  4. When you’re almost ready to eat your soup, bring the broth up to the boil and add the vegetables ( holding back the stalks and leaves) and cook for about 2 minutes, throw in the greens for the last 30 seconds.
  5. Serve right away whilst the vegetables taste sprightly, with a teaspoon of the gremolata on top and your fermented turnip (if using).

Author: Anne-Katrin Weber Autumn Grain Naked Barley Pearled Grains Vegetarian
Barley Risotto with Oven-Roasted Cherry Tomatoes and Gorgonzola

February 18, 2026

This comforting barley risotto - or "orzotto" - comes from Greens & Grains by Anne-Katrin Weber, a beautiful celebration of plant-forward cooking that highlights the flavour and versatility of whole grains. In this recipe, nutty pearl barley replaces traditional rice to create a risotto that’s hearty, wholesome, and full of texture. Sweet, slow-roasted cherry tomatoes add depth and richness, perfectly balanced by the creamy tang of Gorgonzola and a touch of lemon. It’s a dish that feels indulgent yet nourishing.
