    Twelve-Bean Stew With Horseradish Cream


    Source of Recipe


    internet

    List of Ingredients




    2 cups packaged twelve-bean mix (or your own mixture plus 3 Tbs pearl barley)
    1/2 ounce dried porcini mushrooms (1/2 cup loosely packed)
    2 cups water to cover or speed-soaked
    3 cups water
    1 tablespoon olive oil
    2 cups thinly sliced leeks or coarsely chopped onions
    2 teaspoons dried dill
    2 large ribs celery, cut into 1/2-inch slices
    1 1/2 pounds purple-topped turnips, peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks
    3 medium carrots, peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks
    1 1/4 teaspoons salt, or to taste

    1 cup sour cream
    2 tablespoons red or white prepared horseradish, plus more to taste

    Recipe




    Drain beans and barley and set aside. Place mushrooms in a bowl
    and pour boiling water on top. Cover and set aside until mushrooms
    are soft, about 10 minutes. Remove mushrooms with a slotted spoon
    and chop any large pieces. Set mushrooms and broth aside.

    Heat oil in the cooker over medium-high heat. Cook leeks, stirring
    frequently, until slightly softened, about 3 minutes. Add 3 cups
    of tap water, chopped mushrooms, dill, celery, and reserved beans
    and barley. Pour mushroom broth into cooker, taking care to leave
    any residue in the bottom of the bowl.

    Lock lid in place. Over high heat bring to high pressure. Lower
    heat to maintain high pressure and cook for 9 minutes. Quick-release
    the pressure by placing the cooker under cold running water. Remove
    lid, tilting it away from you to allow excess steam to escape.

    Add turnips and carrots. Over high heat, return to high pressure.
    Lower heat to maintain high pressure and cook for an additional 5
    minutes. Quick-release the pressure. Remove lid, tilting it away
    from you to allow any excess steam to escape. Stir in salt to taste.
    If the vegetables are not quite tender, cover and cook over medium
    heat until done.

    Prepare Horseradish Cream by combining the sour cream and horseradish
    in a bowl. Add salt, if needed, and additional horseradish to taste.

    Serve soup in large bowls, with a generous tablespoon of Horseradish
    Cream in the middle. Pass any remaining Horseradish Cream on the
    side.
