1 ONION [chopped ]
SWEET BASIL OR PARSLEY TO TASTE
To a large pot , add uncooked barley and chopped onion to 2
quarts
water.

Reduce to low heat for 45 minutes or so until tender,add
cubed
potatoes.
Bring to a boil and cook until potatoes are tender.
strain and add a can of evaporated milk and water until
soup is
consistency you prefer.
Lots of times I just use evaporated milk and very little
water.
Save water ,you cooked mixture in ,for gravies and
sauces...do not
throw away.Freeze if you must in cubes or small proportions.
CRACKERS
YOU CAN MAKE HOMEMADE IF YOU LIKE
use your pasta roller and you can make your favorite bread
dough into
crackers buy rolling dough very thin and baking until
crisp.
No pasta roller ..roll by hand.
I use my wire pronged meat tenderizer to prick crakers
instead of
fork...much faster.
